In order to help start the writing process, an initial draft essay structure was produced to form a basis of how and where I placed arguments within my essay. This draft splits into six separate paragraphs, each on a different aspect in relation to the research question "How does the experience of a handmade or digitally produced poster design affect our aesthetic appreciation of the design?"
The structure initially starts with paragraphs defining phenomenology and aesthetics, then goes on to explain their links and how these relate to design, with a separate paragraph analysing examples of existing work just before concluding the essay.
However, it was felt this initial structure did not allow the arguments to flow or link up as well as they could. Therefore, my final essay structure uses image analysis throughout in order to use examples in support of the arguments that are presented. The structure has also been simplified much more, and structured in a way which allows me to compare and contrast handmade vs. digital design processes in more detail, as it's an important part of the essay.
The structure also places arguments into simpler, clearer paragraphs which, again, will allow me to go into more detail, and balances word count appropriately throughout the essay.
- Does it need an ABSTRACT?
