The video introduces the authoring process in Scope AR's WorkLink Create training, focusing on the four stages: Project Planning, Content Preparation, Authoring, and Publishing/Distribution.

Overview of the Four Stages:

The four stages are:

• 1. Project Planning
  2. Content Preparation
  3. Authoring
  4. Publishing/Distribution

1. Project Planning

• • Project Planning is crucial and should not be skipped.
  • It involves discovering and planning the project idea, answering questions about the project's goals, audience, and expected outcomes.
  • With a well-executed Project Plan and prepared assets, authoring becomes a smoother process.

2. Content Preparation

• • Content Preparation is a challenging step requiring knowledge of 3D content and a strong project plan.
  • It involves preparing instructional, 2D, and 3D content, with a focus on optimization for effective AR experiences.
  • Project Planning results in a project map, providing a clear plan for Content preparation and authoring.
  • A clear plan is essential for effective Content Preparation, especially for optimizing assets.
  • Instructional content includes text, videos, and insights from end-users.
  • 2D assets like diagrams and photos are prepared, and 3D content is acquired and optimized for AR.

3. Authoring

• • Authoring is the stage where the project plan is executed in WorkLink Create.
  • Starting to author without proper Project Planning can lead to issues.

4. Publishing and Distribution

• • Publishing and Distribution is the final phase, involving hitting publish, generating a scenario, and distributing it to end-users on the WorkLink app.
  • The WorkLink CMS (Content Management System) is also use to publish (offline) scenarios, manage users, licenses, and groups for targeted distribution.

     

Conclusion and Key Takeaways

• • The four stages serve as the thesis for the training.
  • Emphasis is made on not skipping Project Planning, as it is vital for effective AR instruction creation.
