capstone rap-up

i didnt enjoy this journey in anyway whatsoever

proposal presentations

Theme: physical child abuse
Props: poster blown up, and my guidelines in book form and a small brochure discussing the affects of child abuse.
time line:
3/23- fully finish up the website
3/25- have guidelines fully finished and printed
3/27- get poster printed

thinking ahead

     The look and feel of my whole project is going to be grave, mostly using black and white pictures. Others will try to capture judges with color and vibrancy but if I do just the opposite then that will make them question what my project is about. If I put weird alarming art as my visuals they will at least have a curiosity as to what I am going for. And what my end product is.
     I am not going to use any other props for this because I think that simplicity is the best way to get your point across to the viewers. But the way that I will make my presentation more memorable among others is that i will have real life stories that talk about the injustices that have been occurring in the court of law when dealing with child abuse.

creating my capstone poster

The pictures that i got first to make my posters were

• a photo of a dark room
• a little girl standing alone
• a silloutte of a man

and i cut out the little girl and the man and put it on the dark room photos. 
and made a light beam

Black out

I think that SOPA and PIPA passing a bill does have its reasons

• stopping copyright  

But honestly the ultimate reason for this is control, control of U.S citizens and what they can view and can't. Yes copywriter is bad as well as plagiarism  but ideas are not born from one soul, so why should one person receive all the credit for something forever just because they got it out there first. Someone else would have thought of a similar thing anyways. People do not deserve as much credit as they think, an ego boost does not make the world a better place.
Wikipedia is taking a stand against this bill by having a black out, much similar to "A day without a Mexican". I agree with this movement because, you don't know what you've got till it's gone. Making apathetic people angry and irritated proves a point and action. I think the effect of this will cause people to be more in opposition to those silly bills.

Three

There will not be and purchases necessary to complete my overall goal of creating the child abuse guidelines. As I mention previously, I will be using hard hitting photos to depress the audience in a productive way, and those are the types of visuals I will be putting on my poster so that I can get an interest going on my topic. I do not want to use anything tangible because the guidelines are my main focus and I don't want to divert from that too much. 
My appearance during the presentation will formal to get the audience to understand that I am serious and I am a firm believer in what I'm doing.
I will not be using a brochure, game, or animation.
