Targets. I have edited and completed writing the brief: including who the target audience is and what the purpose of the brief is. I will now start researching artists and creating a mood board.

courtney_smith2 — 2015-03-30 14:08:50 UTC

I will research on different artists that focus on the human body or the anatomy of the body or even both and use their work and other relating images to create a mood board.

This is an update of my brief and I have made changes to this as I have decided I am going to focus more so on photography and not on the anatomy of the body

courtney_smith2 — 2015-04-20 08:47:39 UTC

This is the artists research that I will be using as an inspiration to my work and ideas.

courtney_smith2 — 2015-04-20 08:49:07 UTC

I aim today to develop on my research by creating moodboards and analysing work of the artists and what I might use from them to inspire some of my work.

20/04/15

courtney_smith2 — 2015-04-20 12:22:09 UTC

I will continue to develop on my research and write up the inspirations that the artists have on my ideas on work.

you have completed what you set out to do and you have completed it in detail and at a good quality

20/04/15 Afternoon

courtney_smith2 — 2015-04-20 14:06:20 UTC

I will continue to research the history of photography going into as much detail as possible in order to gain an understanding.

Mia

courtney_smith2 — 2015-04-20 15:05:07 UTC

I think that you have completed your target to a good degree, your work is definitely in detail and holds a good quality. However, i think you could have maybe done a little more given the time you had to complete it.

lov u lot mia

Overall today

courtney_smith2 — 2015-04-20 15:10:29 UTC

Overall today, I have researched in further depth on the artists listing the inspirations they may have upon my work. I researched into depth also on the history of photography overall. I then developed my research even further and began on developing ideas and work by using google images to search for images of the human body, saving them in a file on the home screen before combining them in photoshop to compose my own piece. I overall think I have done well so far as I am developing on everything as I go and completing everything in as much depth as possible which I think will become useful.

courtney_smith2 — 2015-04-22 05:29:57 UTC

Overall today, I have developed on my research and began recreating pieces in th style of the artists that I have chosen to research and I have chosen to be creative by using new techniques that I have not yet used before. I created a first piece using fine liner and running it through the use of water

Afternoon - I will continue to develop on my artists research and moodboards within my sketchbook and then move onto the history of Photography and Photoshop.

Review

This page is complementing your sketchbook very well. Upload any work from home to make it more visual. An excellent brief understanding your intentions and what you are planning to do.

Becky's Feedback

courtney_smith2 — 2015-04-27 14:16:12 UTC

Your artist research and mood boards look good so far, the way you have laid everything out is nice and organised. Just continue with your artist research and keep it at the same high standard. To improve you just need to get more done in the time space you have.
