How it all came together

By Chris Sharp

A great deal of effort goes into the production of each of the Number Fun resources.  You may think it's just a case of dreaming up a few songs, but that is just the starting point.  The songs for Resource Pack 2 were written in February 2004 but it was December before Song Resource Pack 2 went on sale.

Many tasks took place between those two points.  Dave wrote the book and Desk-Top-Published it. Kay and Joyce proof read.  Matt recorded and mixed the songs for the CDs.  Craig designed the art-work.  Andy the Photographer did the photo shoot and Andy the Printer printed the book.  Finally I updated the website while Dave produced the fliers for Sarah to use in her mail shot to LEAs and schools up and down the country.

Much of this was hard, solo work, but there was a fun afternoon in my living room—the photo shoot.  I snapped a few pictures of the event, click on the thumbnail pitcures below to view them.

Why was my house choosen for the photo shoot? Newly painted white walls in the living room!
