VCD Unit 4 AOS 1 Student Resource by https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq Curated Resources for Students en-us 2021-10-02 12:09:33 UTC 2024-09-30 20:26:56 UTC hello@padlet.com Pitches akrott https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1785857093 Once you've generated your ideas, you'll need to pitch them to an audience of your teacher and classmates. Whilst the key principles of what a pitch involves are the same, you have some freedom in terms of how exactly you'd like to present your pitch. 

In terms of presentation, you have some freedom in terms of how the pitch might look.
  • You might choose to stand up and present as you may an oral presentation, with a PowerPoint behind you containing images and information. 
  • You might choose to pre-record your pitch on zoom, or another similar program, and present a video in class.
  • You might choose to create short handouts with your images and information, and present them to the class, speaking to that.

  • A description of your client, and both their communication needs, as well as any constraints you might be under.
  • A description of your target audience or audiences, and the purpose of the communication as it relates to them.
  • Mock-ups of what your two finished presentations might look like. These might be sketches, models, drafts, etc. 
  • An explanation of how your mock-ups address clients requirements, as well as how you've used techniques, elements, principles, mediums, materials, and media to engage with the target audience.

Furthermore, observe the layout of his document- He doesn't pad his document with paragraphs of text, including only a few key pieces of information, and talking to that.

This unit will be broken into two areas of study, following which you'll have some time in-class to prepare for the exam. This resource is designed to help you get into the first Area of Study, which is all about the development, refinement, and evaluation of your ideas leading to the creation of your final presentations, which will make up the second Area of Study. You will be using the Briefs you've developed in Unit 3 as the basis for your design work throughout this unit.

Within this Area of Study, you will have two assessment tasks; you will create a folio demonstrating the development of your concepts, which you will continue building on in AOS2, and you will pitch your two Work-In-Progress presentations to the class. ]]> 2021-10-03 12:20:38 UTC https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787153489 Your Folios akrott https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787158665 Your folios will make up a large part of your assessment this unit. You are expected to collect and annotate any research, ideation and visualisation sketches, mockups, material trials, refinement and miscellaneous work you complete throughout the development of your final presentations.]]> 2021-10-03 12:24:52 UTC https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787158665 Student Example 2011 akrott https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787160428 This is an old example, however, it's worth noting the amount of work the student has put in, the way in which she's structured her folio, and worked towards the development of her finals.]]> 2021-10-03 12:26:25 UTC https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787160428 2013 VCD Pitch akrott https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787171642 This pitch is presented without audio, it's assumed that the student presenting would have spoken to this presentation in person whilst playing this in the background. Note the consistent design throughout the pitch, and, as with the above pitch, how the designer has kept it light on information, using the presentation only to reinforce key points. ]]> 2021-10-03 12:35:12 UTC https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787171642 Professional Client Pitch 2020 akrott https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787184094 This is an example of an industry pitch, this pitch was directed to Melbourne Water, by a group of 3rd and 4th year motion design students at Swinburne University. Observe the layout, the research and conceptual development, and the simple layout- The presentation is text light, as with the others, the detail was conveyed through speech, the presentation itself highlighting the most important elements. ]]> 2021-10-03 12:43:22 UTC https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787184094 Student Example 2019 akrott https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787199518 2021-10-03 12:53:41 UTC https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787199518 Presentation of Folio akrott https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787211146 Your folio should be a living document, it's hard to prescribe what you're going to need, and how much space. You can work through your concepts systematically, creating a flow to the folio, or if you use a pocket folio, or are presenting your folio through digital means and printing it for submission, you can rearrange pages to have some sort of flow to them. Consider including some sort of 'narrative' to your folio, as this is a piece of design as well- How are you going to walk the reader through your process?]]> 2021-10-03 13:01:15 UTC https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787211146 The Design Process Part 1 akrott https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787260116 2021-10-03 13:29:15 UTC https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787260116 akrott https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787262322 If you're having any issues, post a question below, and I, or another student will answer as soon as possible. ]]> 2021-10-03 13:30:30 UTC https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787262322 The Design Process Part 2 akrott https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787263678 2021-10-03 13:31:01 UTC https://padlet.com/aidankrottart/dwpgermx34bws2pq/wish/1787263678
