Hi everyone,
I am a video producer and I often have multiple projects going at any one time. I've found the project planning software tomsplanner.com to be very useful for planning and tracking multiple projects. It's essentially a gantt chart program but its added usefulness is that I can chart out several projects next to each other and make sure that certain phases of projects aren't overlapping with each other (eg video editing which requires total attention and has to be done to the exclusion of other production activities.)
These are essentially project plans but I've also decided it would be a good idea to track the deadlines for active projects and subprojects in another location where I'll see them more frequently. Do people prefer tracking these deadlines on their calendar or next to the projects in their list?
I'm favoring the second option because I already have the deadlines tracked on the "project calendar" (ie gantt chart)
Hope that makes sense.
Thanks,
Eric
