Fitness for Purpose
The purpose of the the presentation was to outline how out of Sydney Works and the Matilda rose the UTC Sheffield's creative and digital section. In my opinion I think it was achieved by contrasting how the change has been achieved; I have showed the state in which the original site was left in, how the same spaces were changed to provide a space for a new generation of learners and what aspects of the building have been kept and what has been regenerated. For example, the original fireplaces of the establishment have been kept.
Process Followed
I decide to select content that showed the Matilda establishment in a good light; the art and quotes that were left behind on it's abandoned walls. However, my direction was to also show what was left in those rooms, contrasting it with pictures of the same space but present day. Such as the bare Matilda Noticeboard which was replaced with work from UTC Media Students
Strengths and Weaknesses
'Matilda' won an award for best exhibition installation and will be featured on BBC Look North's program. In my opinion, our most prominent weaknesses was our lack of preparation. The speeches were a bit unprepared on part of myself and Alex who gave the presentation. As I have mentioned before, next time we will have the installation to run automatically.
Appeal to Audience
Particularly I believe that my exhibition has appealed to those who have had involvement with the Sydney Works and the Matilda Building as it was before it became derelict. According to the feedback from the attendees, it is quite clear that our exhibition had a certain appeal and impact
