Your college really is a global community. The college marketing team would like you to explore this theme in view to producing a range of outcomes suitable to be used for promotional material. For this project you will explore the theme of diversity through portraiture. You will study yourselves and others. You will explore various new techniques and processes. You will learn about contemporary and historic artists, designers and media specialists. You will produce a range of digital portraits based on the work of Andy Warhol, Julian Opie, Eboy and Banksy. You will also produce two illustrations based on your experimentation and exploration of Photoshop s paint and line tools. Using your own digital artwork you will start to develop an online portfolio that will eventually showcase all your art, design and media work. You will learn how to develop web pages using Adobe Flash. Using Desktop Publishing Software you will also produce an A5 booklet version of your portfolio. You will publish your work to the internet. You will be required to annotate and describe your work. This must include a description of how you have produced your work, how successful you feel it is and a description of what went well and what could have been improved.

Using your Indesign booklet as a template (Unit ) and starting point publish your work to a web site that showcases your digital portrait work. Decide on what content you will need to publish. This will probably be the same as your booklet. (Unit , 1.2) Enter and insert your content (Unit ) Configure Adobe Dreamweaver to enable you to set up and organise your website Using Dreamweaver set up and configure ftp detailing for ealing-media.co.uk Produce a home page and insert a hypertext link.

With few changes and adjustments you can turn your booklet from an indesign object to web enabled material. You can then publish this work using the export to PDF option. (Unit ) You need to consider what aspects of the content and layout you will need change to enable your indesign file to work successfully on the web. You will need to configure Adobe Dreamweaver correctly to enable you to develop your website. You will need to make a home page and successfully publish your work to the internet
