Finale



















Be as it may, the course has come to an end. My peers and I were given one final assignment, and boy was it quite the workload. For the project, the professor assigned the task of designing and developing a portfolio. But this is not your average portfolio, this one consists of the work we have done throughout the course of the semester. For beginners, this task was not fun, nor easy in any way. I found the time consuming hours, inexplainable mishaps, and overall confusion to be overwhelming. During my work, I had chosen a template emailed to me, only for it to have over 40 errors. The errors were due to missing fonts, as well as text frame issues. After taking 20 minutes to fix that, I was well into my project. I took a break after a couple hours, only to sign back on and see that there were 40 new errors. It said the font I chose to replace the missing font was missing as well... issues like these are ones that I am not going to miss. Throughout the course many mishaps occur that leave the class confused. However, I prospered. Despite the negative, there is one thing I noticed that outshines the bad. My improvement. After completing this task, reflecting on my past work, the portfolio became a timeline and that is what I see it as now. Honestly proud of myself for overcoming challenges and completing this project and overall how far I have came in this class. I can say I'll be ending this course with more knowledge.

  1. Excellent work on your portfolio, Zack! The shading of the background for each page is very nice! My favorite project of yours from this year has to be your Somewhere project, with you ask a skating toy. It's a genius idea, and you made it look very well, as if you actually were an add-on figure to the skateboard!

  2. Great job on this! I am a big fan of the design you chose to go about! My favorite page is the About Me. I like how it's so eye catching and reels you in! Also, great work on the Somewhere project! I thought it was a really cool idea.
