Audition Time Form

1. Audition Model, Auditions Controller, Auditions Routes
2. Associations: Actors w/ Audition Times

POTENTIALLY: Integrating jQuery to create collapsing views for audition times?

POTENTIAL CHALLENGES:

WAITLIST

• Actors who sign up after auditions are full get put on a waitlist
• Another Waitlist Model, Controller, Routes
• GOOGLE MAPS API INTEGRATION-CHECK-IN:
• Add Google Maps API… If an actor given a particular audition slot doesn’t “check in” 1 hr in advance, they lose their spot, and it is given to the first person on the waitlist
• Create Associations with Actors and Waitlist
• Create a Check-in system with Google Maps API... REACH GOALS:
• CREDIT CARD FEE: If you don’t physically check-in on time, you lose your spot and are charged $20.
• TEXT-MESSAGING: If auditions are running behind, the casting director can push back all audition times by X minutes and inform all actors by text message

TIMELINE ESTIMATES (NOT INCLUDING REACH GOALS):

BACKEND

1. ACTOR SECTION: 1-2 hours
2. CASTING DIRECTOR SECTION: 1-2 Hours
3. AUDITION SECTION: 1-2 hours

FRONT END

1. PAGE VIEWS: 3-4 hours

API INTEGRATION:

1. This will probably take the longest… 5-6 hours?

JQUERY SECTION

1. (If we can figure out how to sync w/ Rails…) 2 hours
