Carol Potter Lecture

For the GARP we must consider the following points: ///

• Choose a subject that I have passion for, it will help hold my interest.
• Don't just choose a subject matter because it is more acdemic than others.
• Try not to pigeon whole oneself but try to be original.
• Use a 'blog' to collate all research.
• Reference everything even if i am not directly quoting it in the text.
• Make sure there is a balance between the formal and informal.
• Once the subject has been chosen, make a list of potential practitioners to interview as quite a lot never respond.
• If citing a practitoner, explain why I have chosen this person.

Early Drafts: ///

• Proof read, then read aloud this can help.
• Brief historical introduction.
• Must include illustrations, this is as much a visual project as a literal.
• On Drafts use double spacing so as to allow room for ammendments to be made by the tutor.
• Include proposal somewhere in the GARP maybe as a separate leaflet, do not use it in the main body of the GARP.
• Try to include Digital material ie. DVD, moving image etc.
• Do not use poor quality images.
• Make sure that the project is spaced out and organised effcetively so that things like layout arent left until the last minute.
• Choose stock that suits the subject matter, it shows that though has gone into the design.
• End Pages?? Maybe use some of my own design.
• Maybe leave the interview as they are in the appendix.
