New Build - Evaluation
I think that the PowerPoint presentation about the new building that I have created for the project looks very nice and satisfies requirements given in the brief.
New Build - Plan
According to the brief I will need a range of photographs taken in different places both inside and outside of the building.
For the opening slide I will take a wide angle of the outside of the building. It should show as much of the building as I will be able to get from the wide angle lens I will be using.
Another photograph will be that of college interior. It will be showing students spending time in one of the seating areas. For the best result in showing as much of the interior as possible I want to take the photo from above, probably from the stairs.
To demonstrate how important safety is for the college I am going to take several photographs of entrance gates and security stand.
I will take various photographs of comfortable areas where students can spend their free time. It will include overview and detailed shots of canteen/cafe and communal seating areas inside the college.
Another aspect that I have to present in my presentation is arts and photography department. The photos that I am going to take will show different areas of these departments, like painting workshop and darkroom. In order to make the pictures more interesting I will include students doing their work. It will show how active students are during the classes. The darkroom photographs that I want to take will include the overview of the room, with students working at the enlargers and sinks with trays containing chemicals used to develop prints.

New Build - Research
In order to do my research for the New Build projects I have looked at the Barnet College's Full Time Education Courses prospectus which can be found on the website. I have mostly paid attention to photographs similar to the ones that I would like to include in my presentation.
Firstly, an outside shot of one the college's building called Tudor Hall. Page 25 of the prospectus includes a wide angle photograph of the building and a church nearby. Its strong point is that it shows surroundings of the building, including a large square in front of the Tudor Hall and therefore it achieves its objective. The thing that I do not like it in the picture is a part of college's main reception that can be seen on the right side of the frame. The photo would look better if the camera was positioned more to the left side when taking the picture, what would cause the main reception building not being in the frame.
A photograph on page 5 showing students in one of the communal areas of the college is another picture that I would like to include in my presentation. The good thing about it is that it is not just a boring photo showing tables and chairs set up in the canteen. Instead, it shows students having a good time during a break. We can see that the college is not only an educational place, but it also offers students comfortable seating areas. The only downside of the picture is that it is crooked. It could have been fixed by simply positioning the camera so that the photo produced was straight.
For the presentation I also have to take a pictures of arts department facilities, including a darkroom. There is a photograph taken inside the darkroom on page 70 of the prospectus showing a photography student placing a filmstrip in a negative holder of an enlarger. This picture is taken properly, probably using a high ISO value and large aperture, because it is the only way to get a photo that is not moved and blurry in a dark place without using flashlight. It also shows the enlargers in the background and pretty much sums up the work of photography students.
