One Stop Prom Shop Once More!

         Last time, I spoke about my involvement with the event. So what is the One Stop Prom Shop? The OSPS is a gathering of many different prom related vendors into different booths to supply resources at a convenient location (often convenient pricing too!) for students to quickly get ready for prom. The event was done last year, with success. we aim to achieve similar goal, or perhaps even greater.

         My involvement with this event is to create a video for the assembly to be shown in schools. Two or three videos will be made, and I am working on one of those. The videos aim to explain things related to OSPS in an entertaining fashion.

One Stop Prom Shop!

Dear Readers,

               I am now working on the One Stop Prom Shop presentation assembly. What is the One Stop Prom Shop? Well, it's a sales event located in one area with tons of booths, sponsors and sales, to help students get ready for prom at an affordable cost.

               I have been tasked with the video for it. I will be working alongside others who have been assigned to the same thing, to create a video. It's planned to be half stop motion, half real time, and will comically portray a boy and girl preparing for prom. I hope this goes well!

Yearbook cover!

Dear Readers,

                     I have been tasked with creating two yearbook designs, one of many which will be voted on. The winner will receive a free yearbook (yay) and everybody in the class that purchases a book will see your design. I have put the two designs below for you to see! I was going for a "though we'll be apart later, we'll always be together" -type deal, so I created small icons of various clubs, activities and types of people we have at the school. Even those who get represented  very little. Thanks for viewing!

Black Friday!

Dear Readers,

               As you may know, Black Friday is upon us. And what does this mean for marketing? Marketing is a very important part of consumerism, and Black Friday places it as it's peak. Lot's of us have different items in mind, some of us want to buy something for someone special, some want some new tech toys they can mess around with. I myself plan on buying a new TV somewhere, a smaller one to put in my room since my CRT is old and busted.

               Let's learn a bit about Black Friday. Why is it called Black Friday you may ask? The first ever recording of Black Friday in the late 1800's came after a financial crisis. It has a few different meanings but the most common one as of late, has been a reference to sales going up, into the black opposed to going into the red; meaning negative sales. Mobility has been a big thing for consumers and only retailers, whether they are online or for mobile phones, retailers have even gone as far as to ignore Cyber Monday even exists (like, Best Buy selling computers...etc.) People want couch commerce because it's easier to do, and don't really feel like dying and getting trampled. Companies also want to make it more comforting for the customer. They make deals better and allow for a more customer-centric experience.

Business Letter

  Dear Readers,

           I believe that part of being a good business is knowing how to contact people in a manner that is both professional and kind. That is why, I have taken the time to write a business letter, so I accomplish this goal easier. Bellow is the letter I have written. I think it accurately represents what we intend to do and makes us look more professional as a result.

Dear Readers,

           For this project, I was tasked to create a logo, and supporting images to give myself, and my design service both a brand identity and general look. I chose the colors Blue and Gold, because they have a strong contrast with each other and believe they look good when used together. The dark brown is a warm medium tone, mainly used for the darker parts of the design and to have a contrast with the much brighter gold and the slightly brighter blue, both to have contrast and use for all colors and to use colors on a more broad spectrum, but still confined to these three main colors (I still employ black and white on the designs though).

Thanks for reading!
