Well here we are. Almost finished the module and hopefully working towards the best portfolio you can produce with your designer. The final requirement includes the press release text along with your biography text finding its way to your designer. I have worked with a few of the group proofreading bios and press release. Contact me by email to get a quick response.
Photoshoots are still ongoing but should be completed by now. Posters are in the process of being printed as mock ups but will be reprinted as final once we know details of venues and dates.
The presentation will involve you and your designer showing not only the final product but an audit trail of your journey together. You may want to use the short snapshot video blogs as evidence of this. (or photos of you and your designer at work)
Final submission (as per your booklet/brief)
Press Pack and related Moodboard,Logo design & Tshirt , A3 poster,Photographs, Press release,Biography, CD,DVD, evidence of another media format e.g. Website,T shirts...any research materials and short snapshot video blog. Paperwork includes the initial booklet given out at the start of this module It has the contract within. If you require another copy please email me with this request. The important evaluation and reflection is at the back of this booklet and should also be submitted.
Feedback is also requested from your designer in relation to this project. Make sure your designer is prepared for a professional presentation on the 22nd March.

Happy New Year Everyone.
Welcome to the final part of your Personal Portfolio Module
Before the holiday break we enjoyed viewing some colleagues Snapshot presentations. We are now ready to see the rest of the group. If you did not present before Christmas please ensure that you and your designer/photographer are ready to take part on Tuesday at noon. Looking forward to seeing you and your project so far!
Hoping Mike Brown might join us.
Please remember:
The easiest way to show your preference in terms of styles of photography is to create a moodboard/inspiration sheet. As requested, bring your photography likes and/or dislikes for discussion .
Please also meet with your designer/photographer and organise your production schedule for your photoshoot with a view to confirming dates that suit you both .
The snapshot presentation will take place in the Art Studio and will entail you and your designer/photographer presenting (a) your logo design (T shirt template) (b) your final illustrated portrait and (c) your results from your photoshoot. All of the elements (a) (b) & (c) will be supported by moodboards,research and development evidence. The design process and audit trail of you project so far... should be clarified within the snapshot presentation.
If it were me I would meet with my designer and run through the presentation. Good preparation will be apparent and enable good marks to be scored. Good Luck.
Next stage is pulling the poster designs together and your short promo video. Briefing to follow.
Deadline for the poster design is 25th January.

Professional Photographer Meeting.
Well done everyone who took part in the presentations of Case Studies during our last two Tuesday classes. I am sure that everyone who participated appreciates the excellent work created by those who presented. Once again many thanks. Thanks also to everyone who has submitted their Case Study. Feedback to follow.
As discussed this week you are invited to the Art Studio (at Noon) to meet with Kenny Malcolm who is our professional photography tutor. Kenny has offered a session with you to discuss how you can get the best out of your photo-shoots. This is the next step in creating your Portfolio with your designer/photographer.

Meeting after the October Break
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/electricproms/2010/
You have met with your designer and discussed in detail progress of your new logo design. The final agreed logo design should now be placed within the template of a T shirt design. Discuss with you designer.
It is anticipated that you will meet with your designer on Tuesday 26th to continue the dialogue and to begin the process of creating the illustration portrait. It is vital that you are involved in the process and direct your designer towards a portrait that you will use within your promotional portfolio. This will probably involve a photograph being taken on the 26th or you are invited to bring in any existing images that might be used as reference.
Once you have met with your designer (40 mins) please join me in the Art studio again and we will continue the production of you case study research and powerpoint presentation.
Look forward to seeing you . Regards Helen.Daryl Info for you....ALEX STEINWEISS created the first illustrated cover for an album of 78 rpm records. Before that, the albums were sold in plain brown sleeves, with a cardboard outer jacket and just the name of the artist stamped on the front. They looked like tombstones, Alex Steinweiss said. See his very first cover, a Rodgers & Hart collection from 1939 on the website above.
Week before the October Break
Story so far…We looked at styles of illustration and photography and discussed the forthcoming artwork and photoshoot that you will take part in art directing. You had a go at creating a short six frame storyboard using the theme of your 'journey to college' This was a good exercise and I would suggest you continue to consider your short promo film content and look to use this footage within your digital project.
The photoshoot will be offered soon within your production schedule and once again if you could supply your designer with visuals clarifying the 'style' of photography that you are looking for this will speed the project production along.
You were briefed on the case study for this module, which had a deadline of 26th October. After discussion an extension was offered and the new deadline is 1pm Tues 2 Nov.
