2hr rough draft

Sponge: I'm going to demonstrate networking by having a junior and senior partner up and do something that is unknown as of right now.

Intro: what is most important  in becoming a successful fashion designer? To be successful is when a person is able to accomplish their goal be it small or big, in the end it led to victory. A fashion designer is someone who is capable of illustrating a work of art not only on a sheet of paper but through the art of fabrics. I chose fashion design as my topic because that's ultimately what I want as my career and I enjoy designing because not only is it a hobby for me but I'm passionate about it. Plan for the day: currently unknown..there's too many ideas I want to incorporate as of right now and I don't know how to separate them in a way that they all tie in with each other.

Foundation: fashion has been around for centuries but not really known or seen as a form of art then. In today's society, fashion is what drives every new yorker down to times square, or every southern Californian to  Los Angeles it's everywhere and all around us and the way we embrace this form of art really helps us understand more about it <----that's all I got so far..I know..fail -.-
 
Activity 1: draw/design have everyone make something from a list of about 5 different items

Activity 2: patterns/colors/fabrics have them use these to helps the create their designs 

Activity 3: advertise product make posters that advertise their product from the previous activities

Conclusion: draw/design, my service learning fashion illustration (book), my product is my dress because I used the draw/design answer to create it. 

Presentation

ROUGH   DRAFT.

1. The students will be learning about fashion design, the history, and the background info on one fashion designer. They will also learn what is the importance of being a fashion designer and what is their actual job.

2. There are a few things I will be going over with the class.

a)     introduce my essential question and explain how and why I chose it for my topic.

b)    brief history on fashion design itself, how it came about, when it really started, why  it started, first recorded designer, etc.

c)     talk about a fashion designer. Example can be Coco Chanel, talk about her life, how she got into fashion design, and her motives.

d)    I’m also going to be talking about what a fashion designer does and how much they get  paid, and their job outlook basically.

3. A way that I will check for people’s understanding is by having everyone ask questions when I’m done speaking. This will help everyone get a clearer view on the topic. Another way is for people to ask questions after each section I go through or just raise their hand while I’m talking.

4. Some materials or resources that I will bring are some hand drawn designs, possibly a poster board with designers on it and some of their work to show as an example. Another thing I can do is bring some articles or pictures for people to look at and pass around while I talk.

5. In the end, I’ll just give a brief conclusion to wrap things up and basically summarize what topics I had already gone over.

RESPONSE  TO  5  MINUTE  PRESENTATION.

1) I think what stood out the most in my presentation was the fact that I spoke clearly and the fact that i was able to provide some brief yet good information that is a good intro to my topic.

2) Believe it or not, the hardest part for me was actually showing everyone my own designs. I've never showed anyone my designs before, so I was definitely a bit iffy on how to go about it.
