...the practical exploration of artistic ideas to inform development of a final artwork or performance. Evidence should include a practical exploration of ideas; trials, drafts of compositions/scripts/routines, set design, visual sketches and story boards, for example. For performance-based tasks, exploration will be shown through audio or video recordings, not through screenshots of audio programmes or photographs of rehearsals. Practical exploration must be demonstrated at three stages to inform development of the final artwork or performance: at the beginning, the middle, and towards the end of the process.
