Week 4 (POW Week 6)

BSDC_DDC6 — 2024-09-23 19:59:26 UTC

Thursday - As a culmination of what we have worked on over the last 2 weeks of listening to our surroundings and being inspired, create a final illustration/outcome that shows your day in Birmingham. It could be a key memory of the day, a story you listened to someone tell - how do you show the narrative?

MUST BE COMPLETE BY END OF SESSION NEXT WEDNESDAY FOR 1-1 FEEDBACK

Week 5 (POW Week 7)

BSDC_DDC6 — 2024-09-23 19:59:30 UTC

Thursday - Start to plan your long-term storytelling project for Explorative Practice. Remember you should be aiming to feature the skills that you wish to continue your progression in. With this in mind, the Canva whiteboard will give you the platform to add your chosen story and start to build ideas and research around it - there is a section with each of your names assigned - you can change colours, fonts and layout of images but the idea should stay the same and within the confines of the area.

Be selective in what you choose - throwing the kitchen sink at it is not the answer!

Things to consider for your presentation:

Section it out between you, who takes what section? Make sure you focus in some depth and detail of what your thought process as a group has been
End the presentation by each of you considering what you want to get from the project, in terms of skills and experience, and what do you think is going to be the biggest challenge for you personally in the project (don't tiptoe!)
The presentation is only 10 minutes long - so you don't have a long time to talk - make sure you stay on time!
Make sure it looks clean and is presented well - think of some of the things we said in the last one - typos!
You might want to do a practice run-through to check your timings and how the transitions between you might work
