Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

To purchase a large format digital scanner and printer in order to prepare a book dummy of my photographs of the communities of the Iron Range. Four copies will be made to send to publishers and curators. Production and distribution of the dummies will be the measurable outcome. Ultimately the best outcome would be publication of the book by a fine art photography publisher. A selection of existing and new photographs of the communities of the Iron Range will be digitally scanned and printed to assemble four copies of a book dummy to be distributed to publishers and curators. The phases will include selection, scanning, printing and sequencing the photographs in book form. Those images will be bound and distributed. Completion of each phase is a measurable outcome.
