Talk with Caroline Cloutier and Skype chat with Jane about grant writing.
Documentation tips from Caroline
- Starts with a general view of the space
- Take photos from every angle
- Later on focus on individual pieces
- After that focus on specific details
- 35-50mm focal length
- 100 iso
- Be concious of white balance - Wait until the evening to photograph to avoid mixed lighting
- To avoid having your reflection in the image shoot through a large black sheet or merge two images in photoshop
- Lightroom is extremely useful for batch photo processing, colour correction and distortion correction
Grant Writing tips from Jane
- Make a master list of all the deadlines
- Remember that confirmation can come as late as when you're setting up the exhibit
- Get everyone to give their receipts in the end
- Everyone sign the receipt with their name and what it was for
- Make sure to include a list of each other grant you're applying for at the end of each submission.
- If you don't make back all the money give each person their own percentage
- Concordia travel grant can be used for transport
