Answers below are provided by Gary Grant, and make reference to his own work, which you may view here.
Firstly, supporters to fund your work need something to get their head around. You need to explain in brief the message and purpose of your work. What will it look like when complete?
Location, Location, Location!
It is true, a picture is worth a thousand words.
The media will pick up on the mood of the time. If something is currently in the public eye, then the media are likely to follow shortly behind to do coverage.
Contact a range of media such as newspapers, online, TV, radio and ask for the person(s) or the department that handles the Arts. Find out the most appropriate method to inform them of your work. They may put you directly through to their office or provide you an email address for them. If possible, ask reception for the correct name of the person you need to contact and check the correct spelling of their name and their title/position.
