Hi there,
The Final Project proposal requires a minimum 1-page proposal that describes the theme and topic that you intend to cover for your Final Project. You are to provide images and sources that you intend to reference in the research paper portion of the project, and also discuss what you plan to do as the visual/media component of the Final Project. You are required to include 3-5 images and an annotated bibliography with a minimum of 4 sources.
.and once you decide which one you picked pls confirm with me.
ACTUAL PROJECT:
1. Select a topic that references one of the three class themes (Fashion & Culture, Fashion & Identity, Fashion & Media). The first part of the assignment is to submit a one page project proposal stating what you intend to do for your final project. The second part is to create a visual/media component that captures your topic. Some examples of mediums to consider are a short video, an editorial photoshoot, a magazine cover, a museum exhibition, zine, an original art piece (clothing, digital, illustration, etc.), or blog. Your visual/media component should incorporate diverse and original material to make a clear statement and/or argument about your selected topic, and how it fits within (or challenges) fashion culture and/or the
fashion system. You will present the visual/media component to the class during final presentations. The third part is to write a research paper, in which you explore and research the themes and theories behind your topic. The purpose of this project is for you to demonstrate your knowledge of the interconnectedness of media, culture, and fashion, and apply those concepts in both visual and written form.
Previous successful projects have looked at plus-size models, wedding dresses, natural hair, androgynous fashion, Gossip Girl fashion, cultural appropriation, drag, first lady fashion, hypebeast culture, sustainable fashion, and more!
