It was great to see where your task four projects are up to today, where I think you’re all doing some really excellent explorations in noticing. The main thing for you to do is keep writing and reflecting on moments of discovery and shifts in the progression of your project for your portfolio of blog posts that is part of the assessment for task four.
So, a quick reminder, from the task four submission guidelines that you must submit:
A portfolio of blog posts from weeks 9-13 which include documentation of your project, including, although not limited to; recipes, media, tests and sketches, and reflections on studio discussions, readings, and feedback received. The amount of blog posts will be decided by you in response to the feedback you received for Task One, Two and Three.
So, as we are two to three weeks into this task, there should be lots of thinking documented on your blog, where responding to feedback received today and in next Thursdays workshop should make up posts in your portfolio.
Some other things to reflect on that came out of today’s consultations are thinking about:
- What does the work you’re creating allow you to notice?
- Why does noticing these things matter?
- How are you going to allow an audience to notice unseen things through the form your work takes?
- How does the wide shot and the extreme closeup allow you to see unseen qualities?
- How much are you controlling what is noticed through the technologies you are using?
Another thing that came up regarded thinking about the form your task four project will take as one of the assessment criteria points is:
How well you project creatively and technically responds to noticing as a media idea in form
A lot of you talked about doing different edits of your work which I would highly encourage, as it will allow you to see how different ways of ordering or positioning media influences what we notice. Please note that you can submit multiple final projects that allow you and your audience to notice unseen things.
