IN RESPONSE TO QUESTIONS REGARDING THE OUTPUTS REQUIRED FOR SUBMISSION IN YOUR JOURNALS THIS FRIDAY (10TH OF JUNE) I'V PUT TOGETHER THE FOLLOWING:
1. OUTPUTS REQUIRED:
FINAL RESEARCH MATRIX
4 x 1920x1080px FINAL MARKETING IMAGES
FINAL DOCUMENTATION OF EXPERIMENTS 1, 2 AND 3
THESE OUTPUTS ARE DRAWN DIRECTLY FROM THE COURSE OUTLINE FOR OUR STUDIO GROUP AND ARE AN AMALGAMATION OF WORK EXPECTED AT MILESTONES THROUGHOUT THE PAST 6 WEEKS.
REGARDING THE MARKETING IMAGES:
THESE IMAGES 'MARKET' THE THREE EXPERIMENTS AND THE RESEARCH MATRIX ... IN OTHER WORDS THEY SELL THE IDEAS IN A CAPTIVATING AND SEDUCTIVE MANNER. BUT THEY SHOULD BE MORE THAT THAT ... FROM THE WIKIPEDIA WE SEE A RICHER DEFINITION:
Marketing practice tended to be seen as a creative industry in the past, which included advertising, distribution and selling. However, because the academic study of marketing makes extensive use of social sciences, psychology, sociology, mathematics, economics, anthropology andneuroscience, the profession is now widely recognized as a science, allowing numerous universities to offer Master-of-Science (MSc) programmes. The overall process starts with marketing research and goes through market segmentation, business planning and execution, ending with pre- and post-sales promotional activities. It is also related to many of the creative arts. The marketing literature is also adept at re-inventing itself and its vocabulary according to the times and the culture.
SO THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE IMAGES THAT ARTICULATE MORE THAN THE EXPERIMENT ITSELF AND ENGAGE WITH BIGGER ISSUES ... HOW ONE PARTICULAR EXPERIMENT RELATES TO THE OTHERS, HOW IT RELATES TO YOUR WORLD VIEW, HOW IT RELATES TO ARCHITECTURE AND ITS REPRESENTATION.
FINALLY, THEY SHOULD GROW OUT OF THE RESEARCH YOU HAVE DONE ... IN OTHER WORDS, IF TIME IS AN IMPORTANT FACTOR IN YOUR RESEARCH THEN THE IMAGES MIGHT TRANSFORM OVER TIME.
2. THE JOURNALS:
THE JOURNALS FOR OUR STUDIO GROUP ARE YOUR BLOGS. YOU SHOULD PROVIDE SOME MECHANISM TO ENABLE A REVIEWER/CRITIC TO UNDERSTAND THE KEY ELEMENTS OF YOUR RESEARCH SO FAR ... SO RATHER THAN A REGULAR DIARY YOU'LL NEED SOMETHING LIKE A TABLE OF CONTENTS TO ORDER AND DIRECT A PARTICULAR ARGUMENT. THIS MIGHT BE A LIST OF LINKS THAT REPRESENT THE WORK IN A PARTICULAR ORDER. YOU MAY NEED TO CREATE NEW POSTS OR EDIT EXISTING POSTS TO FILL IN ANY BLANKS.
YOU SHOULD ENSURE ANY IMAGES ARE ABLE TO BE ENLARGED UPON CLICKING. SEE THIS POST FOR ARCH1101 IF YOU FIND YOUR IMAGES AREN'T ENLARGING AFTER YOU CLICK THEM: http://arch1101-2011.blogspot.com/2011/06/useful-flowgraph-version-20_01.html
3. ARE WE MEETING ON FRIDAY:
NO, AS YOUR SUBMISSIONS ARE DIGITAL YOU CAN SUBMIT ON-LINE.
4. WHAT TIME ON FRIDAY IS THE SUBMISSION:
THE REST OF THE STUDIO MASTERS WILL BE RECEIVING WORK FROM THEIR GROUPS FROM 4-5PM IN THE RED CENTRE. SO YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE YOUR BLOG COMPLETELY IN ORDER BY 5PM.
CHEERS, I HOPE THIS HELPS, LET ME KNOW IF I'VE MISSED ANYTHING.
