Product Description

The Action Pad Mini was designed by the Behance team and is based on the Action Method. Each page includes an action step zone, a backburner area, and a clean dot grid (on the back of each page) for your notes. The template was designed to get the most out of meetings and everyday brainstorm sessions.

The Action Pad Mini sheets are especially helpful as a companion to Moleskine notebooks. Some creative professionals use Moleskine or similar books for all notations and sketches, and use sheets from the Action Pad Mini to record and track action steps. One product tester in the movie business attaches a sheet from the Action Pad Mini to the front of each project folder. We encourage you to develop your own system based on the Action Method.

Your Passion is your work, treat it well. The Action Pad Mini is made of 80lb Premium Blend paper with a subtle texture (30% post-consumer recycled), printed full bleed and padded.

The Action Pad Mini is part of Behance's Action Method product line, the first in a series of Behance projects to help creative professionals boost productivity and make ideas happen. The Action Method was designed to help us push projects forward by organizing our ideas and focusing on action steps. An accordion-style pamphlet on how to practice the Action Method accompanies every product.

While the Action Pad Mini has many users across the creative realms, it is a favorite among casting agencies and creative professionals that travel often.

Usage Guidelines

Capture Action steps, relentlessly.

During a brainstorm/meeting or on the run, ideas can come and go unless they are captured as action steps.

Tend to your Backburner.

Keep a "Backburner" to catch ideas that may someday become actions. Whether it is an idea for the future or some small errand you want to remember, put it in the backburner and then forget about it.

Think beyond lines and boxes.

The dot grid on the front and back of each page serves as a subtle guide for your notations and sketches.

Action Pad micro would be great to see as well - one that was a companion to the Moleskine pocket notebook.

I use the Action Pad Mini for everything from organizing small projects to every day to-do lists. It's small and portable, convenient to use even when I'm stuck in traffic, and looks good. What more could you want?

While I use the larger Action Pads for meetings with clients (only have a few of those every week), I use sheets from the Action Pad MINI EVERY DAY. Without these things, I'd probably got @#$# done. I keep them stapled to folders that I use for each project.
