$20 000 grant
If I was given a $20 000 grant, I would start a photography studio. I would mainly do staged shoots for fashion, bands, portraits and self portraits. Also, I would travel to concerts to shoot bands playing live or runway shows.

project reflection
What about your project was most successful? Explain.
I think that my logo was successful because it is better than the old one, and doesn’t convey the same feeling of laziness as the old logo did.
What about your project was least successful? Explain.
The campaign ad was the least successful because I only got the storyboards done, and was unable to finish the actual animation.
How did you manage your time during the project?
I feel that I used class time effectively, but maybe not enough because I did not get to finish the ad campaign.
What would you change about your work?
I would change the different variations, and put more thought into what would look good and look better.
What mark do you believe you have earned on the project? Explain.
I believe I earned a 75-80 range because I worked hard on this project to actually make the logo better, but I didn’t get the final ad finished.
