This project was a great way to learn how to learn and see what Tactics advertisement businesses are using. Sharing my ideas and drafts of the advertisement was fun even though I didn’t think I did a great job at some of them. My group all had good advertisements. even though we did not use all of them it was good to see what we could change and do differently and our other drafts. Giving critique was hard because I didn’t want hurt anyones feelings but after I look back on the critique I got I know now that what they said helped me to see what I was doing in different ways and I hope that I did the same for them.

My first draft was terrible. There were to many pictures and fonts and ya. There were a lot of problems but after we learned more on what to do and not to do in advertisement I thought I had it all figured out. I was wrong.

Ya. I was clearly wrong. This draft was me trying to capture the aesthetic of the my business but I used WAY to many fonts. I think that my third draft was better.

This draft was actually one of the advertisements my group and I sent to the business. In the email he sent back He liked the use of the QR code so people could see what they have on their menu. He explained the specific font they use in their advertisements and logo so that was what I tried to use in my forth draft but I could not find the specific font so I used the closest thing I could find to it

I think that I definitely did a better job than the first. I know it’s not perfect but this is going to be my final design. throughout this project I always wonder why would a someone let grade 8s make a advertisement for their business because sure we don’t do this professionally but I think that after we learned mostly everything, sense we are the generation that is mostly targeted for advertising I think that we know what strategies can work and actually catch our attention. This project was cool and i hope that my groups business likes our final advertisement!

See you next time.

My reflection on this is that it was hard for me at some times on what to write about yourself and how to word it. After a while when i had written most of it it was easy to add more to it and have more ideas of what to do. I was actually surprised after I finished my draft because I usually don’t write a lot nand I didn’t have as much trouble writing as i thought I would. My favourite part of the project was the Memoji because it was fun making the stickers and finding new tricks on the iPad. This was a fun and creative way to show and express yourself and it was really fun
