I think I'm finding it hard to balance the theory and visuals at the moment. It might be a good idea to think about the publication, a quick outline of it. It would allow me to consider what I actually want in the finished publication, without going to the design side of it as of yet, I'm confident and have some ideas for that.
So plan of action for now I think is to really knuckle down and think about what I want in this publication,
I've said before I want it to be a more wholesome image of Hitchcock with possible criticisms and quotes on him and his work.
I want it to be image-led, with the opportunity for me to explore and communicate themes and techniques visually, so I guess I could also visually communicate criticisms etc too in a visual way?
So all the way through the book has the same theme and interest, hopefully.
Start researching more visuals and experimenting with ideas. Could be an informative guide on Hitchcock, quotes, scenes, techniques etc with some academic quotes etc to further enforce points I want to make.
Do I need to have an argument? What am I trying to achieve by making this publication?
Also taking note of the presentations, what worked well and didn't work so well:
- Have visuals, but the right amount.
- Less mixtures of visuals and big chunks of text, the audience doesn't know where to look
- Less bullet points which you recite, it's better if you have the content in question and talk about it through clear articulate notes and points
- Not too short, not too long. Length of it is very important
- Clear order and progression of powerpoint
- Visuals are very important
- Talk loud and clearly, but still kind of conversationally while being articulate and professional too
- Less joking, take it seriously
- Organisation before the presentation and during it
