This chapter describes the work we may be expected to undertake as part of a media team, including the tasks and systems used to create online and print publications. It gives practical guidance on how to collate, prepare, and plan content handling, on using page creation software and web content management systems (CMS) to build a page for print and online. The number of pages and their order; for the web it should list the section and any hyperlinks to other pages, blogs and sites. Web page production combines editorial and technical skills such as creating content for a specific website or page, and preparing graphic material that best uses the possibilities of the technology and media. Web assets such as image, audio and video files should be prepared following the technical specifications of the site, uploaded through the CMS into a database. The online help pages, any other instructions should cover the technical requirements for the web assets.
