What information is found in each of these calls?
Each of the calls tells what they require from artists to be accepted, very specific sizes, titles, length of bio and formats as well as the amounts of visual entries.
What information is found in each of these calls?
akimbo asks for a proposal which requires a CV, visual representations, and a link to the artists website. Whereas the other two ask for resumes, artist statements, a proposal, and digital samples of the artists work.
Consider the design choices in each call. Name one positive aspect of each of the call’s organization of information and one negative aspect. How does the design relate to/reflect the content of the call?
akimbo: I don't like that akimbo can be slightly difficult to navigate however I like that it offers the availability to look up other exhibitions and call for submissions.
Box 13: I don't like that you have to email your proposal to a specific email. I like however that it is an artist run exhibit.
Minnesota Artists: I don't like that you have to create an account to submit a proposal. I like however that the gallery offers sketched up images of the gallery space.
Step 3:
Devise a template for a call for Northcutt Steele Gallery exhibitions (fall 2017) at Northcutt Steele Gallery. Focus on the structural elements of the call. Do your best by emulating the other calls you have reviewed and we will discuss in person what we might want to keep and eliminate.

The submission criteria is somewhat vague . . . Are you limiting the work just to sculpture, videos, photographs? This submission category needs more clarification.
What format for the videos will you be accepting? DVDs? Key drives, etc.
Why is submission criteria not in numerical order. You are welcome to use the template as a model, but this shows no effort to modify for a general call for proposals.
