Project Overview

Role

Project Coordinator | Production Leadership Across a Three-Module Series

Methodology

Hybrid (Traditional + Agile)

Objective

Produce a three-module video-based learning production series in collaboration with subject matter experts, external production vendors, and digital asset teams. I joined Module 1 mid-production, co-led Module 2, and independently led Module 3 end-to-end. A secondary goal was to document and standardize the content development process so future modules could move faster with less rework.

Production Progression

Module 1 — Joined Mid-Production

Joined an active production, developed the module outline, and produced the initial video in Canva. Recognized that the project needed specialized creative expertise and made the case for dedicated production support.

Module 2 — Co-Led Production

Shared production leadership with the existing lead. I took on vendor communication, SME scheduling, and quality tracking, and contributed to process documentation between modules.

Module 3 — Led End-to-End

Independently led full production from planning through delivery. Revised the existing charter using lessons learned from Module 2, built the project plan, decomposed the WBS into an activity list, and integrated project estimates with vendor timeline preferences to organize workflow, scheduling, and milestones.

Executing the Project

Execution responsibilities grew across all three modules. Starting with production coordination in Module 1, I took on more direct ownership in Module 2, and by Module 3 was managing all day-to-day project activity independently, including vendor communication, SME scheduling, and deliverable quality.

Vendor Coordination

Supported vendor coordination in Module 1, shared ownership in Module 2, and held full responsibility for all external production workstreams by Module 3.

SME Engagement

Worked with subject matter experts to confirm and finalize content requirements across all modules, with more structured scheduling introduced in Modules 2 & 3.

Quality Standards

Kept deliverables aligned with defined quality baselines throughout all modules, with formal quality tracking introduced in Module 2 and remained through Module 3.

Monitoring, Controlling & Closing

1

Monitor & Control

I tracked progress against schedule and quality baselines across all three modules.

I introduced formal quality audits and change control in Module 2 and carried them through Module 3, integrating preventive actions from each phase’s retrospective into the updated project plan for the next phase.

2

Closing & Retrospectives

After each module, I ran a post-production retrospective to document what worked and what didn't, including our new vendor.

Findings directly shaped the next module, leading to clearer stakeholder roles, earlier vendor engagement, and more structured feedback cycles.

After Module 2's retrospective with our new vendor and incorporating their feedback and preferred ways of working, I delivered Module 3 one week ahead of schedule.

Outcome & Impact

I joined Module 1 as a mid-production coordinator and led Module 3 end-to-end. Each retrospective produced documented improvements that carried into the next module, gradually strengthening the process across all three.

Repeatable Process

Retrospectives after each module produced documented project and process improvements that carried forward, reduced rework and improved coordination on each subsequent module.

Earlier Issue Detection

Clearer stakeholder roles and active vendor engagement, established at onset of Module 2 and refined after Module 2, helped surface and resolve issues before they affected production of Module 3.

Delivered Ahead of Schedule

Module 3, the first module I led end-to-end, was completed one week ahead of schedule, and was higher quality than Module 2, a culmination of the retrospectives and thorough process improvement.
