CONNECTION TO OWN ART
A. SLIDE LAYOUT
SLIDE 1 : OVERVIEW
-
Overview slide is not necessary
-
But it allows for a nice summarise of your points for the marker
PP LAYOUT
No. of Slides : 13-25 *Recommended 18-25
The number of your slides is dependent on how many works you choose for your PP
CHOICE OF WORKS
-
If I'm not wrong Minimum is 3 Works (At least 2 or 3 works from Each column : 2D, 3D, Media)
-
Choose works that have more technical process​
​DEPTH OR BREADTH?​
-
Do you want to go in depth into each works that you choose (eg. In depth process from start to finish for each work)
-
or Do you want a variety & range of works for breadth? (This could work if for example each of your works process leads on to the next work)
RECOMMENDED NO. OF WORKS : 3-5
-
Roughly around 5-7 slides per work
-
Enough slides to cover Conceptualisation, Research, Artist Reference, Exploration, Experimentation, Execution etc.
SAMPLE ROUGH LAYOUT
5 Works Selected , 5 Slides per work = 25 Slides in Total
-
Note that not all works have the same amount of content, so add more slides if needed
A. OVERALL LAYOUT
B. INDIVIDUAL SLIDES
1 : INTRO SLIDE
TIP : COLOUR CODE
ARTWORKS
-
Makes it easier for your marker to distinguish between works for your formatting.
-
Not necessary
-
Allows the marker to see the overall of your selected works
Over-arching theme 2-3 sentences
-
Can take from your First few lines of your Curatorial Rationale
-
This allows your marker to understand the theme that threads all of your work
MY ARTISTIC PRACTICE
ARTWORKS
TEXT & IMAGE
60% IMAGE, 40% TEXT : PP focuses more on process and showing it through the images.
SLIDE FORMATTING
4 :3
16 : 9
TIP : FORMAT SLIDE TO FIT SCREEN
-
Everybody has their own preferences on widescreen or other formats for their slides
-
However when you full screen your slide
-
So much space on sides or on top that is not utilised.
​
So why not Format your slide to Fit your screen?
More space = More room for content
If you are using keynote, go to the top right corner, select DOCUMENT. At the bottom, there is SLIDE SIZE. Select Custom Slide Size.
Width :1280 pts, Height : 800 pts (Medium Res)
Width : 2560 pts, Height : 1600 pts (Higher Res, Big File size)
SLIDE FLOW
TIP : SLIDES SHOULD HAVE A CLEAR FLOW
-
How does the EYES move around for each slide?
-
Is this mostly the same for all the slides?
-
Make sure there is a clear direction so it makes it easier for the marker to read.
UP DOWN, UP DOWN?
LEFT RIGHT, LEFT RIGHT?
