Study Task 6: Essay Structure

For the second essay, I have used an essay structure which has been provided by Simon. I chose to use the second essay structure as it made more sense to me than the first, in terms of starting with the intro, then linking each paragraph together in the body of the essay through to a conclusion.

The essay structure that I used:

Intro:

print making definition and how it relates to graphic design

briefly answer the question; 'Why are handmade techniques still embraced within graphic print  practices?'

little bit of background information, when and why it was first used

Body:

• Talk about the most popular handmade techniques that are still used within graphic design practices; lithography, letterpress and screen print
• Go into depth about how and why these techniques are still used and why they could possibly stop being used?
• Issues with handmade/manual print compared to automatic/digital print methods
• Mention how print was first used compared to how its used now in graphic design
• link all the paragraphs together
• what are other artists opinions? talk about at least one author

Conclusion:

• Summarise all the points that I have already made about the 3 techniques as well as the other points made about graphic design print
• Talk about how handmade print could change and develop in the future; will these techniques still be used? why/would they stop being used?
