ADVICE FOR EXPERIMENT 1 SUBMISSION

HI ALL,

SOME LAST MINUTE ADVICE FROM ME REGARDING YOUR EXPERIMENT 1 SUBMISSION:

1. MAKE SURE YOUR DRAWINGS LOOK THEIR BEST WHEN UPLOADED TO YOUR BLOG ... BLURRY, DISCOLORED DRAWINGS WILL BE MARKED DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY. IT'S VERY OBVIOUS WHEN THEY ARE BAD, SO IF THEY ARE IT COMES ACROSS LIKE YOU DIDN'T CARE...

2. ONE OR TWO OVERALL SHOTS OF YOUR ARCHITECTURE IS ENOUGH, TRY TO CAPTURE IMAGES THAT IMMERSE THE VIEWER IN YOUR SCHEME.

3. ADD CAPTIONS TO SOME OF YOUR POSTS THAT DESCRIBE WHY YOU ARE SHOWING US YOUR SCHEME FROM THIS PARTICULAR POINT OF VIEW (OR WHY A SECTION WAS CHOSEN, ETC). MAKE SURE THE TEXT DOESN'T CONTAIN SPELLING MISTAKES OR GRAMMATICAL ERRORS ... HAVE SOMEONE WHO IS GOOD AT WRITING TAKE A LOOK AT IT BEFORE YOU POST. DON'T TURN THE CAPTIONS INTO ESSAYS HOWEVER; KEEP THEM SHORT AND TO THE POINT (LESS THAN 50 WORDS IS A GOOD LIMIT).

4. DON'T TRY TO SHOW TOO MUCH WITH THE ANIMATIONS, FOCUS ON A KEY ELEMENT OF YOUR SCHEME WITH EACH ONE. IF THE CAMERA ZOOMS AROUND ALL OVER THE PLACE ALL IT DOES IS MAKE YOUR TUTOR FEEL SICK AND CAN BE CONFUSING.

5. CHECK THE FORUM: http://groups.google.com/group/arch1101-2010/topics THERE IS PLENTY OF HELP THERE.

CHEERS, WE'RE ALL LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING WHAT YOU COME UP WITH.
