PROJECT PROPOSAL

CONTEXT
I have chosen to begin research in to my second great uncle, Edgar Law. The facts that my family have on his life are limited, we know only that he travelled to Australia, and in 2016 we inherited a few boxes containing many of his belongings. Out of everything in the boxes, one thing stood out, a pair of handcuffs, heavy steel with a single key; Given that we don't know all the facts about Edgar's life, except his travels to Australia, there has been a rumour that he was a part of the inmates sent to Australia in the 1700s, this likely isn't true, but it has propelled me into wanting to research into Edgar's full history.
OUTCOMES
By use of online resources and communicating with family members, I hope to be able to fully map out Edgar Law's life and appropriately respond in a visual manner that will benefit my portfolio.
AUDIENCE
There is no defined audience for this brief as it currently is quite personal, though the heavy research would make it appropriate for an older audience who are willing to learn about a Yorkshireman who moved all the way to Australia.
