Presentation 2 Final Draft: Graphic Design


EQ: What is most important for an artist to be successful in the field of graphic designing?

(A) Introduction
1. Describe a general overview of your presentation
-It is mainly going to be a power point presentation on who my service learning is and tie it back to my EQ and defining what graphic designing is.
2. Purpose or objectives of your presentation (aka the thesis of your presentation)
-To show my peers what graphic designing is.

(B) Body (back up your purpose with 2-3 major points)
1. Major point 1: Give examples made my graphic designers. I am doing this to show that they are hired to create pieces of art for something specific (movie poster, book cover...) (6 min.)
2. Major point 2: Go over my piece "Northern Lights", and how it helped me take a huge first step. (4 min)
3. Major point 3: Show who my Service Leaning is and why he helps me. (5 minutes).
*For each major point in the body you plan to discuss, put in parentheses how long you think you will present on this topic
4. I am going to tell every person to design a rough draft of a movie poster on a piece of paper. I'll give them a movie genre (drama/romance) with the actors and directors (Keanu Reeves and Kate Beckinsale) and the plot of the movie.
5. How will this activity help the students understand the major points you already covered?
-The first major point covers how a designing is given a piece to do, and given the requirements and wants and needs form the client. They have to meet all of these and bring it all together to be appropriate with the content of what they are presenting or advertising.
-The second point shows the steps I took in design a piece myself. How the actual piece came together and what I had to think of in order to get to where I wanted to.
-The third point has to do with the gathering of the overall knowledge I gained from the past two points.
(C) Conclusion
1. Summarize the essential points and discuss how this is connected to the EQ.
-Point 1: One of my answers to my EQ is meeting the needs of your client. By showing actual works of art and advertising from real designers, I am giving real life examples of what works well and what doesn’t.
-Point 2: This is mostly me going through the process of designing an art piece. Practice is very important to any career, but it doesn’t directly reflect on any of my EQ answers, but to the EQ it does because skill is essential for success.
-Point 3: This is one of my main fountains of knowledge when it comes to the entire field of graphic designing. This is for my own personal use as well as getting answers to my EQ.
2. What was your most important source for this presentation and why?
-Definitely my service learning. He helped me come up with 2 different answers for my EQ. Plus he give me help on how I should continue forward in my own practice for this career.
*You need to also reference research as you are presenting the introduction and body.
