Pinning up, models in place, A3 document etc.. Allow time to prepare how you are showing your ideas - order of digital presentation, is there clarity even if the project is not known to the audience? Explain well, learn to speak and present through your own visuals.

Kubrick exhibition visit 26th April 2010

We visited the Stanley Kubrick exhibition in St Albans - James Gooch was part of the exhibition design team, his role was to design the exhibition layout. James gave a short talk about his experience.

getting ready

preparing for final critique 4th May

In today's lecture I talked about the importance of process, and the awareness of the different stages of process. I suggested you 'cut up' the process into a series of 'polaroids', using key images or text to act as a reminder of that particular stage of the process. This is a simple yet effective way of reflecting on previous work and its relevance. Clarity is gained for the editing process and you can start moving to the final stages, adding the last 'polaroid' to the collection..

There are some images from the lecture on studynet to go with your own notes from this morning.
