Robbery Park

 

Paragraph Writeup:

I believe that we distributed the work evenly with the various roles we were given as a group. For myself, I worked on the Minecraft Theme Park, specifically on the apartment building, the railway, the carousel, the shows, the fireworks, the headphone store, and as well as the bridge. I was able to delve deeper into the book and find the quotes that directly relate to each building. I worked on the pizza menu and the merchandise section for both the Powerpoint and brochure. Moreover, I was able to come up with the name “Robbery Park” for our theme park as it directly relates to the story when it introduced a bank robber. Ava focused on the front cover of the Theme Park on the brochure. She also worked on the escape room, the carousel, and the rollercoaster on the brochure. She goes in-depth about the rides on her Powerpoint slides and how it relates to the story. Djzinnixe worked on the characters for both the Powerpoint and the brochure. She also designed the characters to show a visual of what they possibly looked like. She also helped work on the Minecraft Theme Park, specifically the cafe, the bar, and the pizza shop. Kofi’s job was to do the three shows for both the Powerpoint and brochure. He also worked on the Minecraft Theme Park by focusing on the shows and the fireworks. Nathan focused on the Minecraft Theme Park by working on the shoe store, the bank, the carousel, the escape room, the bridge, the shows, the fireworks, and the entrance. Nathan also worked on the brochure by focusing on the Park information section. He also goes more in-depth in the Powerpoint about the food and beverages of the theme park. In summary, I think that everyone contributed fairly as each group member was able to do their part successfully.

The Personal Logo Assignment

1. Ideas for your Logo and how they connect to you

Doughnut – One of the most preferred foods I like to eat.

Campfire – Shows the camping trips I went with my family.

Basketball – One of my favourite sports to play.

Although tough for me to choose, I decided to choose the Doughnut as my logo.

2. Research

Most of the research came from watching Youtube videos to get ideas from other people that had created doughnuts in Adobe illustrator. Furthermore, I looked for videos that would talk about what makes a logo unique in general. Instead of tracing images, I decided to use multiple shapes to keep my logo itself simple and memorable.

 

3.  Iterations – Sketches and/or Tracing 

 

4.  The Results – 1 Black and White and 2 colour

5.  Reflection – What makes it successful?

I believe that it was a successful logo for me because how pleased I was by creating the doughnut. Fortunately, I was able to spend a good chunk of time into my logo while being motivated to think of ideas.  It is a meaningful design for me to be proud of, and a good challenge for me to improve my designing. I was glad that I was able to curve my text, so it may stand out more and being creative with it. Overall, this has been an interesting experience for me to create my first, thoughtful logo.

Found Poem

Harsh events

Stay in touch and keep on communicating.

Persevere through the struggle.

We are experiencing an unexpected peril.

We are in this together with a new perspective.

Watch the news during this unprecedented time.

There is still hope, everything will be fine.

Stay strong and healthy, we will make it through.

This pandemic has been impactful and awful.

Self-isolation is now the new normal.

As a community, I hope we are all coping well.

We will have immediate concerns for this unpredictable future.

Digital learning will be a fantastic adventure.

Do not feel stressed, take care as always.

 

Creating my Email poem was enjoyable and quite the success. My poem is based on the recent pandemic, and how we are all adapting to the new environment. it was a difficult task to scavenge for unique words to add to my poem to make it sound more inspiring. After a couple days, I was able to create a poem that I was fully comfortable and proud of to show. Overall, this has been an excellent experience to create my first detailed poem.
