Booth box

=========

This page contains the booth box contents (in planning). We have two boxes:

* Big, around 50Kg, suitable for 5K+ visitors

* Small, around 20Kg, suitable for 1K-5K visitors

* USB Big, around 20kg, hypothetical box replacing DVD's with USB sticks, suitable for 5k+ visitors

* USB Small, around 10kg, hypothetical box replacing DVD's with USB sticks, suitable for 1k-5k visitors

Smaller events will have to create materials locally or use the contents of a booth box nearby. For the first year we expect to need about 15 small boxes, 5 big ones and about an equivalent of 10 more big boxes of materials at SUSE for the openSUSE team to bring with them to events.

The box contains 3 types of materials:

* openSUSE dvd's or USB sticks

* Tools to 'run the booth' like tape, markers and a powerstrip

* Materials to make a booth look cool like flags and posters

* hand out/give away materials like flyers and geekos

The tables contain the items and educated guesstimates of weight, price, and a proposal for the amount to be put in the booth box. The totals on the bottom are reasonable guesses but we will only be sure about the weight when we finally get everything together.

Once we have these lists all done and decisions made, we will begin to order the items, assemble a test box and see how it works out.

The boothbox content lists

==========================

Documentation for the booth

---------------------------

The materials below should tell the team how to build the booth, handle visitors etc

* usb stick with promo materials/data (images, video etc)

* talking points

* openSUSE fact sheet

* booth kit manual/checklist for setting up booth

* report template (incl room for follow-up contacts)

* tips including:

 * Don’t allow your display area to become a fortress but create walkways around your tables that invite visitors to come in.

 * TBD

* we also, for each event, need to print a a4 sticker to be put on the box with the name of the event, person the materials go to, emergency contact and more.

booth tools

-----------

These are basics which aim to make sure the booth team can write on and hang up the posters, turn on their laptops & use the monitor(s).

small supportive electronics

----------------------------

These items provide the team with some nice, openSUSE branded devices to drive people to the booth: a speaker, mouses, webcam and more. Due to weight, cost and uncertainty about usefulness we decided to not include any of this for the first year.

ARM promo ideas

---------------

The following items we could include if we want to promote ARM at our booths. They're mostly some ideas around arm devices that are thin & light and can create something presentable in a simple, lightweight way. We would need an ARM device and a screen; either integrated (laptop, tablet) or external (the Scenelights beamer might be an option for that).

These things would need micro-hdmi-to-vga or microhdmi-to-AV converters. Plenty on amazon for Eur ~14 and in other places eg see for example this [hdmi to vga and AV cable](http://dacomobi.en.alibaba.com/product/629545618-214044280/1_5M_HDMI_to_3_RCA_VGA_HD15_Video_Audio_AV_Cable.html)

We won't do anything this year but if the ARM team has ideas, we should talk.

Informative/fun openSUSE promo materials

----------------------------------------

These are our main promotional materials: flyers and postcards. The flyers aim to inform people, the postcards are more fun. We currently have one flyer design (about openSUSE) but could create or include more like OBS, SUSE and other flyers. Postcards are a good way to add themes - like an upcoming conference or release promo. Might be an idea to create these in small-ish batches whenever we want to promote something and only then stick them in the boxes.

The numbers below are most fitting for the 'small' box, it is best to go double for the 'big' box.

the give-aways with logo

------------------------

These are the typical openSUSE give-aways. We have had geekos, t-shirts, beer, stickers and book inlays in the past. The amounts should be at least doubled for the big box, probably tripled.

possible boxes to ship the materials in

---------------------------------------

I looked everywhere for a print service for boxes but this seems not to exist, at least not for reasonable prices. We should consider using stickers. Boxes can be either cardboard/paper or plastic. Some choices and reasonable prices:

I have no idea what size we will need. We'll have to order materials and see what we can fit in what volume.

We create a generic sticker with content info and for each event we print a second sticker for that specific event.

Let's guestimate the costs of a box on Eur 35 incl stickers etc.

openSUSE Team suitcase

----------------------

When the openSUSE team travels to evens they have to bring 'stuff' with them. A decent suitcase is needed for that. These are some options. We need to know more about volume & weight before we can start making choices.

Based on the current state, total weight and cost estimates excluding the cost of DVD's/USB sticks:

 USB Small |  40   (1kg)           |  14.45kg     | Eur 775.50    

 USB Big   |  120  (2kg)           |  24.7kg      | Eur 1250,5  

Please note that I tried to be conservative in my estimations: the costs will most likely turn out lower, as will the weight.

 re-usable badge design | design it [namensschilder-nbi.de](http://www.namensschilder-nbi.de/engine-design/reusable/?sizeID=12) | idea is that we keep the same badge but replace the nametag. See [namensschilder-nbi.de](http://www.namensschilder-nbi.de/preisliste/) - tag on bottom. This can be simple... | should be simple, nothing yet 

 flyers | A4 full-color, flexible | we have a 'about openSUSE' flyer, needs review. We could include others (eg OBS, SUSE) | needs review and one side could use less corporate artwork (is in github)  

 Postcards | A6, full-color, double-sided | we probably should make these in smaller badges to promote for example the openSUSE Conference. But fun and targeted designs (OBS or other openSUSE features, eg 'we believe') welcome. | needs discussion and some designs  

 useful posters: cheatsheets, calendars | A3, full-color | these are our give-away posters. They should invite hanging up, so not TOO openSUSE-ish, but useful cheatsheets and such are good. | there is some stuff, needs review, some new designs and decisions  

 Stickers | round, oval, A8, laptop - all full-color | to give-away. At least 3 final designs. | a few things floating around  

 festival band | See [armbande.de](http://www.armbande.de/textil.stoffbander) click 'weiter' and see app, design something. 'suchen' lets you upload a logo. Use 1 color | they are give-aways | shouldn't be too hard, have nothing yet 

 geeko tatoos | flexible size and colors but let's go 1 color, 4x4 cm for now | multiple designs needed. These are give-aways. | needs to look cool, nothing yet 

Note that all artwork needs to be usable for _AT LEAST_ a year: *DO NOT USE RELEASE-SPECIFIC ARTWORK*!

Artwork plan

------------

The artwork needs the following steps to move forward:

1. review of the above list and the status of each item by a designer, to determine:

 * what is ready to be printed

 * what can be made ready real quick (like a pen that just needs a geeko on it)

 * what simply needs a bit of design polishing (putting existing things together)

 * what needs creativity and input from the community artists (needing 'original' artwork like posters etc)

1. creation of the 'quickies' so they can be ordered asap

1. Creation of proper, clear requests for the community on what is needed from them

 * think about the requirements for colorspace, format, quality etcetera. I can and will help with this as much as my knowledge permits.

1. Creation of items in need of some design polishing in order of priority so it can be ordered

 * We'll probably have to find out what is reasonable here.

1. Judging, polishing and preparing for printing of artwork from the community

 * This will need the designer to be interacting with the community. There is a lot of work to be done and this will probably eat considerable time.

Todo

====

Current todo list

* get artwork (anditosan currently working)

* start ordering things once we have an GO on budget

* develop the documentation

UPDATE: Anditosan> I have gathered a few images of what is specified on the artwork list above and I am currently designing a look that is unified across these elements. Likely I will be using colors shown on our current version of openSUSE and some green, of course.
