posters

hey!
the ads look really good but my only worry is that they're landscape not vertical. i think that's fine for web pages but to put up in bar and shop windows it might be a problem. is there aby chance getting another version of it?
sorry for being a pain...

Posters for web and print (A3 size)

Hi guys,

Who ever feels the need to start advertising the exhibition can now use these initial posters for web and for print. I've added all the files to the site www.secrets-exhibition.co.uk/adverts

The web posters can be downloaded from these links:

The print versions are quite huge files. They are PDFs and A3 print quality. They can be downloaded from these links:

Seminar attendance

This applies to a very small minority....however, it is VERY important. As you are aware the university does attendance monitoring of the weekly seminar registers, as obviously do I, and a high level of absence is taken note of.
50% mark of this unit is based on your project contribution throughout, included in this is also attending the weekly meetings you organise AND the Wednesday seminars. Unless you have a very good reason not to attend the Wednesday seminars which you have notified me off (and one or two of you do have genuine reasons!), then regular absence will count against you when I am assessing.

On a university technicality if you are absent for 50% or more of the weekly seminars then you will automatically fail the unit, unless of course you have extenuating circumstances that you have officially notified us of. So, as I do not want to see any of you fail this unit please discuss with me any further regular absences, otherwise I'm afraid it will count against you.

Dummy Books

I have managed to get a couple of 'dummy books' to insert work into....these are hard back authentic looking books (with own titles etc) but with hundreds of blank pages inside. So if you want to use these and the other items you are collecting then submissions & installation team keep in mind where/how you will exhibit the work when choosing them.

posters

hello again!

good news for the posters! 
The branch manager of Callprints is willing to produce A3 posters in 120gsm Xerox colourtech (whichbhas a slight sheen to it) for £1 a print +VAT as a gesture of goodwill towards our project. i'm guessing the whole won't cost more than £35 and i don't think they want their logo anywhere but can can offer them anyway...
what do you think? these could be the posters we put in the more important places and use simple photocopies for the rest. If everyone is happy with it just send me the final cut of the poster and i'll get them done asap.
it's all coming together now...woop woop!

Rota For Exhibition Week



Hi all,

This is the rota I've made for the exhibition week, for all the people that turned up to todays meeting. Anyone who wasn't there today, please let me know a.s.a.p. which days you can be there to help out, and whether it's certain hours, or the whole day etc. so i can add you to the list. I'm assuming that everybody who put their name down can help out the full day (of course except the times when we need to go to class etc.), if not please let me know so we can have a concrete rota and make sure we always have peeps at the exhibition.

If it's necessary, we can probably start allocating jobs for the exhibition week next week so that everyone knows what they're doing. The Tuesday, Wednesday and Sunday will be mucky days with lots of cleaning, and moving of heavy furniture so be expected to dig in! Practical clothing would probably be a good idea :)

I think thats it for now anyway, have a good week.

catering

hi all! 
popped round to the printing place  after the meeting and gave them a ruff description of what we want for the posters so now i'm awaiting quote, they said they'd email back by the end of the day...
however, on the way back i went passed a catering company and popped in to find out prices and menus. now  the official prices are way over budget. but i told the chef we were a bunch of poor little students trying to make our way in the art world and he offered to give us "private prices" if i email him with what it is we want and how many people it would be for. obviously it would way better to get Yo Sushi to cater but if all else fails...
so what do we actually want? i'm guessing finger foods and canapes but he want a specific list to give us a quote. so suggestions anyone?....
