Abstract:
1. A point in phasetime method for reporting an element's effort on an end product from a group including art, industry, and nature by a point in phasetime within an appropriate phase of development whereby the point in phasetime method reports efforts for past, present, and future projects by phasetime macro, micro, and nano points in phasetime views, said point in phasetime method comprising: a master computer housing a relational phasetime database for receiving and storing points in phasetime data on development event efforts of elements as related to a project development of an end product, receiving and storing element effort data and phasetime data in the phasetime database as to a phase of development, receiving and storing general profile data on elements having development event efforts in the project development of a product, structuring effort and phasetime data as to number and types of phases in the project development of a product, and for reporting said phasetime data in a phasetime report, a mode of communication, including a computerized device, for scientifically gathering phasetime effort data for elements having project development event efforts on an end product, a client machine electronically linked to the master computer for submitting points in phasetime effort data for elements having project development event efforts, a search system whereby element development efforts and phasetime data are queried by the client machine, retrieved from a master server's phasetime database by a phasetime report generator module, and dynamically reported to a client machine, and said client machine at least electronically linked to the master computer for querying the phasetime database and receiving a search return report from the phasetime database with a link to a selected element's phasetime matrix report, wherein the phasetime matrix report consists of three parts, a project header, a phasetime matrix, and a matrix point in phasetime effort, the latter two parts forming a two-dimensional graphical display with three-dimensional attributes that appears in two interactive segments windows at least display data regarding a project's phases of development and start and end date timeframes, and an element's effort and the point in phasetime, which is proportionally displayed within a context of the effort's appropriate phase of production development, an arrow of phasetime x axis which graphically depicts a project's past, present, and future phase of development, a graphical display of other element efforts in that same phase of development, and a graphical display that accesses an effort's phasetime macro, micro, and nano storyline views, said phasetime matrix at least comprising: a first part, wherein matrix header displays a project name, past, present and future indicator icons indicating if the reported project is a past project already published, a present project currently in production for which a release date has been contracted, or a future project not yet in production but for which a projected release date has been contracted, and macro, micro and nano indicator icons indicating if the reported effort is a phasetime macro landscape view, a phasetime micro portrait view, or a phasetime nano close-up view, a second part, a phasetime matrix window segment, comprising an effort owners name and effort, a production artifacts link, an effort owners point of contact, a y axis vertically displaying all the phases of production in the project's development, selecting from a group including concept development, pre-production, production, post production, manufacturing/distribution/promotion, and post manufacturing/distribution/promotion, an x axis horizontally comprising an arrow of phasetime which is divided into segments that correspond to the duration of each of the production phasetimes on a project, with an arrow pointing left indicating past project data, an arrow pointing right indicating future project data, and a clockworks function that tracks both project phasetimes and product content runtimes whereby individual arrow of phasetime clockwork icons representing each phase of development of the project enable a browser to access phasetime macro, micro, and nano views for display within a lower third section of the phasetime matrix, an open phase box indicator proportional box size graphically approximates a duration of a development phasetime's reported start and end dates for each development phasetime reported by a x axis arrow of phasetime and y axis phasetime designations, a shaded phase box inside the open phase box depicting an effort's start and end dates and in which phasetime the effort occurred, a third part, a phasetime point in phasetime effort window segment which interacts with part two's arrow of phasetime, comprising a window automatically displaying efforts of other elements efforts occurred within same phase of development as an owners effort which appears in part two's effort display box, with links from those other element efforts to that element's effort report, a window dynamically displaying other element efforts which occurred on the same project within different phases of development when a user rolls over and clicks on an open phase box in part two's phasetime matrix window with links from each of those displayed other element efforts to that element's individual effort report, a window dynamically displaying all element efforts which occurred on the same project in all phases of development with phasetime macro, micro, and nano storyline views when a user rolls over and clicks on an appropriate arrow of phasetime clockworks icon from which a user then accesses selected storyboard beats in phasetime macro, micro, and nano storyline view.
