EXAMPLE PAPER OUTLINE for 4-6 pages:
• Paragraph 1: Introduction to entire paper (different from intro to your formal analysis)
– Introduce the main ideas of your paper (briefly)
– State your thesis, or argument
• Paragraphs 2-4: Formal analysis
– Briefly describe the visual elements of your work
– Focus primarily on the important elements that are important for your thesis or argument (probably will be more abbreviated than your actual formal analysis was)
• Paragraphs 5-?: Research and explanation of ideas previously mentioned in your introduction
– Specific topic relating to your object ( i.e. comparison to other similar works, function, significance of how it’s made, influences on or from other cultures, symbolism)
– If possible, try to pick a topic that relates to what the piece conveyed to you in your formal analysis
• Final Paragraph: Conclusion to the entire paper
– Restate your thesis/argument
– Sum-up the points made throughout your paper and how they apply to your thesis
