Project assessment
Request a Project Assessment for a Custom Lantern Festival
Share your venue type, season, route idea, product interests and site constraints. Ocean Art Lantern can review early project inputs before deeper design, production planning or commercial discussion begins.
What this assessment is for
Turn Your Project Idea into a Clearer Planning Discussion
A commercial lantern festival requires connected decisions: venue fit, visitor route, product mix, production scope, shipping assumptions, installation support and local operating responsibilities. A project assessment helps your team organize the information needed for a useful first review.
This first-touch assessment organizes what you know, what needs clarification and which project inputs should guide the next discussion. Commercial scope and terms follow only after a deeper review and written agreement.
Who should use it
Built for commercial venues, event operators and RFP teams
Venue and attraction teams
For zoos, botanical gardens, parks, commercial venues, resorts and tourism destinations planning a seasonal night attraction.
Event companies and operators
For teams comparing custom lantern festival options, product routes, photo moments and temporary event responsibilities.
Procurement and project teams
For RFP, finance and operations teams preparing clear inputs before commercial comparison or internal approval discussions.
What to prepare
Useful inputs for the first project review
Complete documents are not required at the first step. Clear starting assumptions are enough to help Ocean Art Lantern understand the project direction and ask better follow-up questions.
Visual and product scope
Product interests help define route role and visitor experience
Animal lanterns, botanical displays, dragon centerpieces, water-side displays, tunnels and seasonal scenes can play different roles in a visitor route. Naming your preferred product families helps the project team understand entrance impact, photo moments, story zones and site constraints.
Responsibility boundary
Separate Ocean Art Lantern support from local site responsibilities
We can review design scope, product planning, production assumptions, packing, shipping discussions and installation-support planning. Local permits, utilities, site access, security, ticketing, visitor operations and local compliance usually require ownership by your venue or local partners.
Assessment inputs should make these responsibility assumptions visible before the project moves toward design or RFP discussion.
Assessment request form
Share the project basics your team already knows
Start with the information already available to your team. These inputs help Ocean Art Lantern understand project direction and prepare focused follow-up questions before deeper scope review.
First-touch assessment inputs
The first form keeps the inquiry light. Share the essentials now; route files, RFP material and detailed documentation can follow when the project moves to a deeper review.
Budget and RFP context
Assessment works best when your budget stage is clear
Your team may be exploring feasibility, preparing an RFP, comparing options or clarifying internal approval requirements. Sharing the budget stage helps us understand whether the next discussion should focus on project scope, RFP inputs, product mix or documentation questions.
Assessment FAQ
Common questions before sending project information
Do we need a complete RFP before contacting Ocean Art Lantern?
No. A route sketch, season, venue type, product interests and site notes can be enough for an early project review. A formal RFP can come later if your procurement process requires it.
Can we ask for product recommendations?
Yes. Share the visitor route, target audience, photo moments, site conditions and theme direction. Product families can then be discussed by route role and project fit.
Should we upload files through the first form?
No public file-upload field is needed for the first version. Mention available maps, photos or RFP files in the project brief, then send files later through the confirmed email path.
What happens after I submit the assessment form?
Ocean Art Lantern reviews the first-touch project information and identifies what should be clarified next. If the project appears suitable for deeper discussion, the team may request route or display area, preferred product families, budget stage, RFP or procurement timeline, site constraints, local responsibility owner and documentation needs.
What does the first assessment establish?
It establishes a shared starting point for project questions and follow-up information. Commercial terms, production details and documentation are defined only after deeper scope review and written agreement.

Project Assessment
This form starts a first-touch project assessment. Share the project basics your team already knows – venue type, season, route idea, product interests and site constraints – so Ocean Art Lantern can identify useful follow-up questions before deeper scope and commercial review.
If a deeper review is appropriate, the next step may request additional details such as route or display area, preferred product families, budget stage, RFP or procurement timeline, site constraints, local responsibility owner and documentation needs.
