Degree Show Risk Assessment

It is unlikely that a physical Degree Show will go ahead due to COVID restrictions however, I created a risk assessment to access the potential risks that individuals would be exposed to while viewing my project in person.

Handmaids Tale Experimentation

As this is a ballet adaptation, I thought perhaps I could use ballet shoes as a motif. I'm going to try to avoid making this look cliché. If this doesn't work, I may play around with the additional photograph that Dean provided us with. I purchased a pair of used old pointe shoes on a reselling app named, 'Depop' and once arrived asked my boyfriend to hold the ribbons of the ballet shoes in different positions. At first I noticed that the natural lighting was extremely dark and dull. Being a complete amateur at photography, logically I needed another light source so decided to use a smartphone camera flashlight to provide this.  We tried the lighting from different angles until we had the flashlight almost face-on to the ballet shoes. This reminded me of being in front of a spotlight at the theatre and created some amazing natural shadows. I thought the introduction of the male hand/arm was synonymous with the controlling men in the Handmaid's Tale.  The main theme ...

Although this would be an interesting project, this isn't an area I have much knowledge about. I have previous experience creating app mock-ups using myBalsamiq and prototypes using Invision however I have never coded an app before let alone published one. This gap of knowledge may hinder the development of the application and result in an incomplete project. Therefore I'm leaning towards a web design and development project instead. As I have alread...

As the degree show is not going to be held at the University of Hertfordshire due to COVID restrictions, the school of Creative Arts have created a website in which you can upload you work to showcase your final project. I personally thought this was a great idea as the online degree show in 2019 - 2020 had 40,000 visitors including potential employers - which is significantly more in attendance than a physical degree show. Therefore it was important for me to show my Degree Project in the best way I could. I finished my draft which I'll need to submit for approval before this goes live.
