     About the Project

Here is our coupon

      This past quarter, I have been working on a project with three other people. The project was to come up with a new invention, for example, my group came up with Vinels, which are Vines in virtual reality. Then, we had to create a logo, web banner, ads, animations of the packaging and the project, catchphrase, commercial, and a website. I helped out with the logo design and the website. I have been working all quarter, with my team, on this project. I did have to go in during lunch on some occasions to finish a certain part of the project, but besides that, I used majority of my time in class to work on this project.

     Some challenges we faced were fixing little mistakes in our commercial. There were times that our team felt stressed and overloaded mostly because of little errors and forgetting when we had to turn certain parts of our project in, but we kept working and finished everything on time,
and the hard work paid off.

Here is our logo

     One thing I learned is to be more patient and calm under stress. I was given a lot of positive feedback from my team on the work I did on the website as well as some things I could change or do better on. At the beginning, the text on the website was the text the team used on the logo, but I didn't like it mostly because when I went to preview it, there as no way of telling which text was the heading and what wasn't, so I changed it. Overall, I really liked this project and the team I was on. The hard work from each of us paid off.

     Some of the activities I did to complete the project was turn in
my own version of our commercial, which isn't our official commercial, build the website, and help out with the logo. Since I built the website during the animation rotation section of the project, I didn't have time to create an animation. It was pretty easy for me to stay productive as I built the website and gave advice to my team mates. I mostly communicated with my team on what I needed for the website and how much more work I had left. I did have to come in once at the beginning of the quarter to finish my version of the commercial, but besides that, I finished everything in class.

Strengths

     I maximized my strengths by working hard on my part of the project while also giving advice to the rest of my team when they asked for it. Or, if I got advice from somebody, I'd use it. 

Summary 

     What I loved most about this quarter was building the website because when everything was finally in one place, it looked original and official. All the work the team and I did was finally together in one spot.

      One thing I would change is if a group is stuck, with no ideas, is give them a list of current problems, whether it's global warming, or a first world problem like not knowing what to eat when you're hungry. This way, it'll give them a little boost in what to do. 

Our Web Banner

     Overall, I learned how to get along with people that don't have the same personality or interests that I do. It was a good experience, and one I'll definetaly run into again. 

     Next year, I hope to grow my skills as well as my list of friends. I hope I can grow my skills in technology as well as learn to communicate better with my teachers, friends, and team mates. 

      

      My final thoughts are that this project was a good idea, even if I was unsure at the start, and it helped me grow as a person to connect with others I'd never thought I'd get along with.
