1. Final designs to develop a successful final piece

2. TODAY you must write down
what media(s) you are going to
work in for your final piece.
Please also fill in what materials
you need provided and what
materials you going to be
bringing in yourself. It is
important that you write clearly
and understand that only
materials written today will be
able to be organised for you.
Chosen media

3. You have now
experimented
with a range of
materials and
decided on the
media(s) you
want to use for
your final
exam piece
Next … you are going to develop your final idea further so you
are able to come into the exam confident and organised ready to
create a successful final outcome.

4. Idea boards
Over the next week you
need to create 2-3 final
piece ideas. These can
be formatted in a variety
of ways. You may want
to create ideas straight
onto the boards or
create small canvases
or sculptures that you
photograph and then
write about on your
boards (loose work will
also be submitted)
I have decided to create a large scale
painting to represent my theme
‘distortion’. Here is one of the images I
am considering using for my final piece.
I have used acrylic paint and I feel this
has worked well to show different tones
as well as the distortion and the
movement in the image
Here is the second image I am considering
using for my final piece. I have again acrylic
paint tat has helped me build up the range of
colours and movement in the image. At this
stage I feel Idea one is a more striking image
for a final outcome.
Idea one Idea two You can have
more than one
design on a
board or have
each board as
a separate
design idea

All designs
should be
clearly
annotated
explaining how
they link to your
theme, what
media you have
used, your
opinions etc

Your design ideas may show a range of different images you are thinking of using for
one final outcome as shown in the two examples below.

6. You may have already chosen the image you want to use so your final designs might
simple be trying out different colour schemes that you could use
Idea one Idea two Idea three

7. If you have
decided to
create a
mixed media
piece. Your
design ideas
maybe trying
out different
combinations
of materials
for your final
piece

9. If you want to create 3D work make sure you experiment with your chosen material.
This will probably mean creating a small model and maybe trying some sections to a
larger scale

10. Extra marks
For extra marks explore
your chosen idea further.
Create a final board with
an image of your chosen
idea and an explanation
on why you have chosen
it. During the exam you
could also take
photographs of your work
as you go along to stick
on this board and at the
end write a brief
evaluation
