ONGOING FOLIO WORK FOR S4 Craft & Design

Folios should have….

1. Your Problem and Design Brief Page

2. An initial analysis mindmap featuring all 11 areas of investigation.

3. An ordered list of the areas in the mind map (All 11 points written out in list form).

4. Your Existing Ideas research (3 Pages) (6 objects already out there and descriptions of what they are, made of etc)

5. 6 Wood Joints, rendered, with notes.

6. A materials research table (Woods).

7. FIVE of your own sketched ideas for your final project. Ideas should have notes and be done in PENCIL/Coloured Pencil. HERE are a couple of ideas.

8. You should have a Ratings Table for your next page that shows how you have evaluated your ideas sketched before. Get a template HERE to help you with this.

9. You should produce a Wood Finishes research table (Like your woods table) that can be included in your investigation area of your folio. Focus on Wax, Wood Stain and Varnish for your research.

For those who don’t know, I have started a team in JP called The JP Mo Bro’s. Why? Well…

October is the month when we raise funds for women’s health issues. We never really do much for men’s health directly. Movember is our chance to do something to raise awareness of men’s health issues like Prostate and Testicular cancer and mental health issues. I joined the charity Movember and now Me, Mr McGorry, Craig and John from S6 are all growing a moustache to raise money for the charity.

It’s a great cause and I reckon as a team we are near £500 already so, dig deep, pledge what change you have in your pockets to us and perhaps we can change the face of men’s health!

I would like you to continue AND complete your poster rendering assessment this period.

When you have finished you should start to think about your Colour Theory report based upon your poster. Look back in your folio and notes to help you get started and remember…

Moods and Feelings, Layout and Display, Warm and Cool, Advancing and Receding, Accent Colour in your report.

Produce a draft report in your jotter.

Good Luck!
