Final Project

The final project proposal/portfolio sheet is now posted to the blog. If you have any questions, ask.

Your final will be 7-10 NEW images created specifically for the concept you chose to develop. We will be discussing these ideas during your individual meetings. For those of you who were not in class today, you can sign up for your meeting at the next class. It is expected that you turn in your contact sheet and written proposal on Tuesday. The requirements for these can be found on the project sheet.

Also, contact sheets and written proposals can be turned in on a disc, or for those of you who have access to color printers, you can print these.

So...

Tuesday, November 18th, the following is due at the beginning of class:

• project 4: critical mass (see project sheet for list of all materials due)
• written final project proposal and contact sheet
