Project Title

Section 1: Rationale (Approx. 100 words)

This section provides you with an opportunity to reflect on, review and summarise your
progress and achievements through the first 7 units of the qualification. You should outline
the knowledge, skills and understanding you have acquired.
What you know now, and what it means to you, compared with what you knew and could
do before you started the course, and how this has influenced your choice of pathway and
your project proposal.

At the start of this course, I’ve already been using photoshop for 3 years, so I
was already very familiar with the tools, but I always kept improving and still do.

Another Adobe programme I am good at using is Premiere Pro, I have found a

lot of shortcuts and new editing methods that usually speed up the process of
editing. I have expanded my knowledge on Premiere Pro throughout this course
since September.

I am not too used to After Effects, mainly because it’s a software I don’t use
primarily, but I have learnt a lot of After Effects skills since September.

Knowledge and understanding of – design, pacing, composition

Section 2: Project Concept (approx. 200 words)

This section provides an opportunity for you to clearly explain the concept and aims of your
project. You should make reference to the research and ideas that will support your
project’s development. What you anticipate producing, the levels and types of resources
that you will need, and an indication of the form in which you will complete and present
your final realisation within the allocated timescale.

For this, I plan to do research to get inspiration from existing movie posters, I
can use my photoshop skills to have a lot of originality with the actual posters
themselves. I have created a mood board with what I can use as inspiration for
my graphics work.

The skills I have learnt can help with the originality side because I can use my
own methods and techniques. Not only will my work be original, but I am used to
using the tools in Photoshop so my work will be completed successfully by the
deadline.

My aim for this project is to use inspired movie posters, use of colour scheme,

my photoshop skills to create a good outcome for my final project.

By the end of this project, I hope to have created all of my graphics work, and
have blogged about it throughout the project, whilst completing everything else
that I have to do.
Section 3: Evaluation Methods (approx. 50 words)

This section provides an opportunity for you to explain how you will reflect on and evaluate
your work, as both an ongoing activity and at the conclusion of the project.
You should describe how you intend to record your decision making and how you will
document changes to your ideas as the project progresses.
The evaluation section should reference your stated aims and be reflective and analytical
rather then a description of actions completed.

When working in collaboration with others, you should comment on how this may impact
either positively or adversely and outline the steps you can take to minimise disruption to
your own progress.

When reflecting upon what I have completed, I will talk about why I have
documented and screenshotted my progress on my actual work. I will explain
what aspects from movie posters have inspired my work.

When I work in a collaboration with others, I will talk about what I have done for
the group and the process of creating the posters, logo, etc.
Proposed Research Sources and Bibliography

This section provides an opportunity to record the initial research sources (both primary
and secondary), that you intend to use. Your sources of research should be as wide as
possible, including, but not limited to: libraries, museums and galleries, books, theatre/film/
video, magazines, TV/radio programmes, websites and online research.
The bibliography should be continuously updated as the project progresses.

Project Proposal – Unit 08

Project Action Plan and Timetable

This section provides you with an opportunity to outline your planning and organisation over a period of
weeks, and the activities you will need to carry out in order to successful complete your project within the
agreed time frame. It is important that you consider how you will balance ambition, time and realism in
the realisation of the project.
This should include what you are going to do, how you will do it and by when. The more time and thought
you give to
planning your project, the more successful it is likely to be. Remember to include: time spent sourcing
materials,
questionnaires, access to workshops, tutorial and peer group feedback, and where you will incorporate
independent study
