Uploading your work to Pool

A few notes about uploading your final production project to pool.
STEP 1 - Create a Pool Profile (or four)... by joining pool you can go a couple of ways...
  • all or some members in the group can create a personal profile – create one if you feel you might like to use Pool in the future (beyond PP1_09) as a place to exhibit your work or simply play... alternatively, if all in the group are sure they will not use pool post-this-assignment – then create a profile that represents your project group..***NB – all profiles require an image and ‘about me’ text***
STEP 2 - The Profile[s] join the groups - ‘RMIT Media’ and ‘PP1’ and ‘Gene Pool

STEP 3 - Upload work (aka your production project) to your profile
  • When logged in - press the 'upload' button
  • Unless your PP is a straight audio, video, still image or text file - you will need to upload a link to your project - I've created an example upload HERE - but basically, on the page you will need: an image, a title, your 250 word framing statement, full list of credits, full list of attributed works
  • Then add this work to groups by ticking the ‘RMIT Media’ and ‘PP1’ and ‘Gene Pool’ and PUBLIC  boxes on tab 4 
NOTES
  • 'work' items will appear on your profile in order of upload - there is no way to mess with this - so if you care about the order of items uploaded - then think about it carefully before you start
  • unless you have a group profile, there is no way for project partners to share the same 'work upload' - so, if several people want to share the same project... you will have to upload the work items separately (to avoid the same piece of work being entered in the groups four time - ensure that only one profile in the group has the work entered into the three groups.
