DDA 500, Large-scale Digital Imaging
due Feb. 24(week 5)
This assignment consists
of work in progress for your semester-long project. Since
this assignment comes at the 1/3 point of the semester, you should have done
approximately one-third of your total project.
Specifically, you should
have and hand in the following at a minimum:
·
Project Description: Write a short
(approximately 100 - 200 words) paper describing your project, its
underlying concepts and/or issues. This can
be derived from, but is in addition to, any written writings you may have
given me earlier.
·
Technical
testing: You should have tested and/or
researched out most of the technical issues you foresee for the
project, including the effects of the scale on fabrication, printing, and installation. Include materials to support
your work on these technical issues. This
could be a written summary, sheets of data, sketches. Make sure your materials are organized enough
that they will be comprehensible to me.
·
Visual
composition work: You should have worked
out at least many of the compositional
issues by this stage – what the project is going to look like, elements that
will be used, color palette, etc.
Include materials to support your progress on these compositional
issues.
· Two-dimensional scale mockup of your project: This can be done in Photoshop or Illustrator or a similar program. It should show a human figure plus a sketch or rough of your visual project, with both scaled relative to each other. Based on your scale tests, indicate the expected dimensions of your project.
On the due date, hand in to me all of the above on a disk. Also post to your blog samples of all of the above.
