ANSC 500, Fall 1996 - Disney Consumer Products Corporate Intranet

Project Summary

As a final project for the Fall 1996 Managing Communications course at USC's Annenberg School for Communication, our group came up with recommendations for the development and implementation of Disney Consumer Products' corporate intranet.

We wrote a 40-page research paper detailing intranet communications issues, while tailoring it to Disney Consumer Products' needs. For our class presentation, we demonstrated intranet technology by prototyping our proposed Disney Consumer Products intranet which incorporated the suggestions outlined in our paper.

Group members included Christina Collins, Elizabeth Hawkes, Jennifer Lee, Jana Rabenowitz and Jennifer Roche.
