   Evidence in sketchbook and some additional evidence below 
   
   1. Assignment 1: Mixed media Christmas matchbox task

1.3, 1.4

materials: 

pencil

paper

felt pens

sequins

fluffy material

Equipment: 
Photoshop

scissors

printer

glue

Techniques: 

• drawing houses and trees and cutting out
• colouring in carefully
• cutting out houses and trees
• snowflakes falling in sky made on photoshop using snowflake picture, repeating it and changing each colour and arranging in collage. see sketchbook for evidence.

Final Mixed media work - Album cover design
1.2, 1.3, 2.1, 2.2

Ideas:  Guitar drawing

• I drew a guitar using a lightbox to help me
• I took a photo and put it on the computer
• I opened photoshop and opened a photo of Ed Sheeran
• I used my picture of a guitar and deleted the background using magic eraser
• I turned it white
• I added lots of layers of the guitar and arranged them around the photo
• On Dafont I found a font and wrote the title and Ed Sheeran and used snipping tool to copy it into Photoshop and I added a stroke in blending options.

Printmaking:

Step 1: Drawing round image of Ed Sheeran on cardboard using the projector.

Used string and wool to cover lines to make a stamp using glue and scissors.

Prints madeusing black and red ink.  Rolled through the press multiple times to make more parts stand out.

Took photo of prints and in Photoshop I added colours by  changing the colour balance of each photo and arranged them like pop art. I used Da Font for text to make a title.

Presenting finished work and discussing ideas, techniques, explaining how the idea was developed further and getting feedback from others.  As there were no areas to develop suggested Amy has written about this in her evaluation after discussing this with Rachel. 
Feedback from Phil, Beth, Sam

BRIEF: WATER

See sketchbook for extensive planning and research evidence

Video shows Amy explaining  / presenting her ideas and getting feedback and deciding final idea.  

1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 and 2.1

Evaluation (written at home so no support given.)  Expresses some ideas and addresses many assessment objectives for unit 3 in addition to sketchbook evidence and blog evidence.  Including 2.4 working safely / risks and AOs 1.1 - 1.5, 3.1. 

3.1 / 3.2 cross referenced to unit 5 as evidence of being able to see this criteria in addition to evidence there as not fully completed due to college closure / lockdown but there is evidence in unit 3 videos, evaluation and unit 5 video of Amy being able to do both 3.1 and 3.2 (she reviews beth Allen Mulroy's work - see video) 

Unit 2

Not started due to college closure.  See tutor assessment sheets / cross referencing to show where assessment objectives have been met via other units.
