BOLD NEW IDEAS!!!

BOARD 2 BRAINSTORM NEW EXCITING IDEAS/CONVENTIONS/ARTISTS

In order to progress your ideas onto board 2, you will need to introduce new artist models or revisit ones you have already explored. Make sure you choose an artist who you think will be good to emulate for the top sequence of board 2. On a new slide titled Board 2 development : Board 2 Brainstorm

Look at the amazing books we have in the book cupboards to find a new interesting artist to emulate for your first sequence.

Look back at the extension projects from 2.2 and 2.3 for more ideas to extend your ideas.

MANY STUDENTS FIND ADDING IMAGES OF YOUR ARTIST MODELS TO YOUR ILLUSTRATOR LAYOUTS ON BOARD 2 WHERE YOU SEE THEM WORKING IS VERY HELPFUL AT THIS STAGE.

What are the markers looking for to award excellence?

Look at the below markers report for one of our own TGS L2 Photo students.

This report can be found at : https://www.nzqa.govt.nz/ncea/subjects/visual-arts/external-exemplars/level-2-2017-photography/

Selects and uses appropriate art making conventions to frame the investigation fluently and to drive the development of ideas.

Investigates a subtle range of compositional shifts at the beginning, exploring formal photographic conventions with an informal pose
Demonstrates critical decision-making and assuredness by exploring the use of the circular motif initially as a framing device and then in a wider context
Integrates the circle motif using successful picture making related to collage techniques allowing the candidate to provide a range, breadth and regeneration of ideas

2. Reflects on and identifies best options from previous work and use these to advance ideas in distinct / new or diverse directions.

Clearly builds-upon and moves ideas on from the previous work while regenerating new ideas with approximately eight distinctive shifts of ideas
Reflects on, and identifies best options from, previous work and uses these to advance ideas in distinct, new and diverse directions. More understanding of critical decision making through the regeneration of the ideas would place it more securely in the Excellence range

3. Uses a range of media and techniques assuredly, each appropriate to specific phases of the investigation.

Edits work to show consistent skills with media and techniques but reduced sizing of the portrait series at the start of the submission could allow more room to investigate new phases of the investigation with less repetition of ideas
Relies on a limited number of blocks and stencils that are appropriate to the investigation.

Start shooting lots of little shoots all the time - this way you slowly develop a depth of ideas and regeneration. Once you have met with your teacher to discuss your plan immediately begin your shoots. Always adding your contact sheets and sequences to your slide document as you go.
