Day one Induction Feb 6th

Today Philip gave us a fairly thorough demonstration of the Safefood360 software. I didn't realize how many safety checks and reports a food safety officer had to deal with. Before this software was developed by George and Philip, endless amounts of forms have had to be filled in, filed away and eventually retained in vast amounts of boxes. Eventually the paperwork takes up so much space that it costs a lot of money to store.
At the moment, most of the food industry are using a paper based system. The team at Safefood360 are in the process of introducing their software all over the world and revolutionizing the way food safety teams work and document their reports.

Part of my placement is to produce a number of testimonial videos from users of the Safefood360 software. We hope to get the first video footage from a spring water company in Monaghan called Celtic Pure.

 

The second part of the day was spent looking at explainer videos and testimonial videos, to get some ideas for our video. I also downloaded a 30 day trial version of some software called Camtasia, as we feel it could be useful for producing step by step instructional videos.
