introduction
Research, presentation and storage Research With each assignment you should provide evidence of how you have developed your ideas and perfected the techniques you have been using. This should be presented in an organized way showing the creative and technical development of the finished piece of work. Make brief comments about images that have influenced your work. Photocopy these images and include them with your research.
Presentation Presentation can have a major influence on how your work is viewed. ~ When presenting on-screen make sure the software and computer are compatible. ~ Ensure that all of your digital images are cropped neatly. ~ Mount all printed work neatly and label appropriately. ~ Ensure that horizontal and/or vertical elements are corrected if this is appropriate (sloping horizon lines are visually unnerving to look at).

Storage It is best to standardize your final portfolio so that it has an overall ‘look’ and style. ~ Assignments should be kept in a folder slightly larger than your mounted work. ~ Analog material if used should be stored in a dust and moisture-free environment. ~ Digital files should be burned to a CD, saved to a portable disk or hard drive or an online storage site.
