Proposal

This task is called "personal project" and I've chosen to do my project about Deforestation. The reason I've chosen to base my theme of this project on Deforestation is because it's something that i feel strongly about and that us a human beings need to take a lot more seriously than we already do and I'd like to shed some light on the topic. I will be using Photography and graphics for this assignment so basically I will be using a camera and photography/illustrator to edit my work and finalise it before i paste it into my online portfolio.

I would like my work to look professional and for people to navigate through it easily. I also want my work to be very inspirational and to make people actually donate and make a change. I want my work to look something like this. I also have a few ideas of my own as well.

The initial research that i will do will hopefully be quite eye opening as i feel strongly about Deforestation. I think i can show this in my work. I'll tell people my inspirations for choosing this subject for my project and also tell people why i feel strongly about it. My pre-production work is mainly going to be researching deforestation and understanding what it is, researching about how important it is, how fast it's happening, how fast we can stop it and how we can stop it or at least slow it down for now. I'll plan out in my schedule what i'm doing week by week so i don't get bogged down with work and it's not all over the place. When i'm creating the schedule it'll help me a lot because ill plan everything out like my pre production. Im going to work out how to take pictures of the trees, how to represent it and how to edit them. I will create a questionnaire on surveymonkey and ask people to fill it out then take in what they've said and use it on my blog so i can talk about it. This primary research will give me a far better understanding of the people that i will be addressing and presenting my work too.

Im going to present my work by creating its own little website for it. I will firstly go out and take pictures of the things that i need like sherwood forest and my dad's timber cutting company and a few other things and then i'll put them on to the website that i'll be creating. You will click on the website and the first thing you'll do is see some background pictures. Those background pictures will be clickable and will take you into the page. The pages will have writing on and be accompanied by one of my pictures. The things ill talk about here are: what deforestation is, why trees are important, how fast this is happening, how long we have to stop it and eventually how we can stop it. This is going to be the website i use to make my website/portfolio.

This is my schedule that I have created:
