week 13: last crit

Dear all,

First off, congratulations on the work you presented today! huge improvement from last week
You're all on the right track and its looking good
push yourselves this last week, almost there, your work is worth it.

for next week bring ALL for review (except models, unless you want to look at that but probably not)
remember, its our last crit so manage accordingly so all your questions are addressed.

POSTER:
based on today's crit bring
—BW print in actual scale (can be tiled) bring options ( 2 at least) this entails: small variations on design as in: type scale, inks, materials, vinyls, silkscreens etc. Need to nail it.

INVITE:
same as poster. actual scale
—make sure you have the correct content as per last week's post

BOOK:
—full catalogue, actual text & images.
— imagery: the installation is the feature. include images from photoshoot today. remember to guide the viewer through the piece and its key aspects: what it does, how it does it. its behaviour. here is where you guides visually to the space (exterior and interior) but most importantly present your concept in all its complexity through a visual narrative.
— all materials intended for body matter (coloured sheet, newsprint, semi gloss, matte etc) / covers (plastics, fabric etc) / bookbinding method (and sample, so you test it out before).
— print or application technique for covers, spine, back cover (as in: printed fabric, or, fabric with type embroidered in, or vinly lettering on plastic etc)

INSTALLATION MEDIA PIECES:
— bring all for final review. this includes video & sound in actual format.

VISUAL NARRATIVE: 10 images slideshow
—bring a pdf slideshow of the best imagery for your piece (this is the one you'll place in your book). It should illustrate the concept, space and its behaviour (responsiveness) / in addition: bring all your images,
so we have a selection to chose from if some changes are needed)
—these will be projected on our final presentation as a collective loop. so I'd like to test that out.

WEBSITE:
—working site. should be able to view through browser.

questions welcome
thank you
carolina
