Make and edit a headshot.
Photograph a (human - sorry our furry friends) subject, and fully process it. For the sake of the processing, have the photo be a medium shot. That means the composition should be from the shoulders, ending at the top of the head. Fully process that photo.
Do a complete workflow post process on the image, noting any major adjustments you did.
Post the unprocessed image and the final edit side by side. (For this you can export the raw without any added adjustments, or screenshot the raw file.)
Include a write up about what your process looked like, and any challenges you ran into. Include what your thought process was as far as what you intended the final image to look like. If you have specific questions, include those as well. For feedback, mentors will be focusing on the how you were able to translate your intended goals into the final image.
