The active proposal of an advertising PROJECT that integrates different advertising pieces.
The project consists of the creation of an Agency PORTFOLIO with the exhibition of some of its works in a digital format (web page). The portfolio will consist of two projects carried out in groups. The objective is to work with own originals and their application in graphic creations.
The working group will form an AGENCY. The PORTFOLIO Project will be carried out by the members of the Agency.
The dynamic will be active work, mainly on the photographic set, or external depending on the pieces to be made, and graphic design until the final art is completed.
PROJECT: The methodology follows the concept of Active Learning. Through the orientation of the teaching team and the initial planning of the face-to-face sessions, through the integrated modules of theory and practice of image taking and the final edition, each team is in charge of developing a final activity (PROJECT: PORTFOLIO OF AGENCY), in which the student will also have individual responsibilities. Active Learning also includes virtual materials and activities that help complement the process, such as didactic cards, reading materials, and analysis.
INDIVIDUAL PROJECT: The student will have the opportunity to carry out an individual graphic project.
TUTORING: The permanent tutoring of the professors in the photographic production unit in the different phases of production, the support of the laboratory technicians, and the consultation of virtual and bibliographical materials will lead the student gradually to their objectives.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.
