Continuing from the post I made earlier about KanohiJournal's 2011 Refresh, we have now finalized how the KanohiJournal and MNI will proceed for the remaining of 2011 and into 2012. Our plans have now been accumulated into one single project, Project Empire State Building.
Important Changes
Managerial Changes
Project Empire State Building
Based on this schedule, we hope to have two non-BIONICLE based items from 2012 onwards. KJP will also produce PDF/ebook versions of Nexus Tower Guides for LEGO Universe during this time.
Hopefully the above makes sense, and that all of you will be eager to participate! =D
ALPHA PREVIEW OF KJP: Version 1 | Version 2
Important Changes
- The KanohiJournal will now become KanohiJournal Publications (KJP), retaining the original KanohiJournal logo and colour scheme.
- KJP will no longer produce magazine articles, instead focusing on the production of content such as ebooks, games and stories.
- The KanohiJournal Staff and the MNI will now be working together as one team - the KJP. (However, both groups will retain their identities)
- From 2011-2012, the KanohiJournal Staff will head two projects, while the MNI will lead another two. These four projects/publications will be the only focuses for the coming future. More details to follow below.
Managerial Changes
- Tyler Durden is now the CEO of Plast! Productions - This will have no direct impact on KJP.
- I am still the Chairman, so, liek, I still lead the place and such. ;D
- Shadow Kurahk will continue as the CIO (Chief Information Officer) and will be assisting primarily with technicalities and websites.
- Tyler will work with either Celu or Riglax as the Co-Presidents of the KJP.
- Tyler, Celu, and The Dark Hunter (and possibly others in the future) will work together as the KJP Board.
- Each of the projects/publications will now be led by one Project Manager, who will make regular updates to the Board about progress.
Project Empire State Building
- There will be four major projects during the start of the Project: Online LEGO-based RPG game for children, Solis Magna Guide for BIONICLE, Ancient Chronicles and Awakenings.
- Lesovikk's Hiatus will be diverted to 2012.
- Solis Magna Guide and Lesovikk's Hiatus will be the final two "intensive" BIONICLE-based publications. We will be transiting from BIONICLE-based content from the start, and this focus will increase until the major focuses are non-BIONICLE related.
Based on this schedule, we hope to have two non-BIONICLE based items from 2012 onwards. KJP will also produce PDF/ebook versions of Nexus Tower Guides for LEGO Universe during this time.
Hopefully the above makes sense, and that all of you will be eager to participate! =D
