Skills & Knowledge Design sheet

 Updated 29/9/24

Your skills and knowledge design sheet (S&K) is an on-going document that you need to work on throughout the course.

I'll post a list of things you should try and include in your S&K design sheet here, with the newest at the top of the page.  Aim to produce the equivalent of a column for each one, but some will probably need more than a single column. The important part of each one is your own written account of your own use and experience of using these items or techniques

You'll start to realise that you'll be able to group some of these into associated sections within your work. If you'd previously written about the Pinhole camera, it makes sense that as you add a new camera such as the Pentax, they'd be in the same section together? 

Aim to do this work when you can, the main design sheet is the important one to get completed, just keep this one ticking over - try and do one or tow of the subjects every day or so.
