PlANNING TIME

To do:

• Equipment:  What resources do you need to complete this brief?
• Shooting:  Who is your model?  Where will you shoot?  When?  Costume? props? Lights?
• Frontcover:  What will it look like?  Fonts, colours, text, images?  Sketch and a#scan your design ideas

Lots to do - and lets not forget your new Monday p5 lesson.
