WORK IN PROGRESS SHOW Posted by: ally

The ‘work-in-progress show’ is open to year 0, 1st & 2nd year students from GD and GDNM.
Third floor of the Barge House, Oxo Tower, London.

The opportunity for students from these years to show work is a new and exciting addition to the degree show.
We have never done this before, it is experimental and new and we ask you to work with us.

The nature of this show has changed from the initial idea of proposals and display of work into a live work in progress show.
We have had to think quickly and adapt our ideas in response to an exciting proposal from Vaughan Oliver. We appreciate your commitment so far and we have confidence that you will understand this adaptation from the original call for work to this more exciting and dynamic event which sets out to engage/involve the audience of the show in a new and exciting way.

Following Tuesday’s meeting, we have considered some of your concerns and thanks to Tony Meyer you can now submit films to be considered for the showreel. If you are interested in doing this you need to get your work to Tony in GDNM by 4.00pm on Thursday 3rd June.

This show is an optional extra curricular activity and we invite you to seize this opportunity and engage.

We would like you to know that tutors are also committed to helping you to make this show a success and like real industry experiences, we have had to think on our feet and adapt to changing circumstances such as space allocation, health and safety requirements, resources restrictions, budget and timetable changes and personal commitments.

THE SHOW:
What you need to think about: Think about which processes you wish to use. We have been working today to supply you with an A3 printer and paper, external hard drive, scanner and two digital projectors and A1 cartridge paper. We suggest you bring your own USB stick, laptop, camera, drawing equipment and any other materials you may need.

Day 1, Tuesday 8th June
We will begin by meeting on the third floor of the Barge House at 11.00am. We will need to set up and establish a creative laboratory in which to create and show work. How we work within this space is really important and requires your commitment to make the show a success. Please arrive by 11am prompt.

Day 2, Wednesday 9th June
Vaughan Oliver arrives hot off the plane from New York to brief you. Be punctual and get to the venue by 11am. Expect a long but exciting day.
