I enjoy this logo because I feel like it is fun and playful. The font is different which makes it remain in the audience's head while the monkey adds a playful effect to the appearance.


2.  I like this logo because it matches the name of the company. It makes me want to go to flycycle because it looks freeing and fun

I like this logo because it is pleasing to look at. It is organized and fun.

This logo makes sense with what it is. You can see the juice in the cat and how radiant the cat is after it drinks the juice. I also think this is playful.

I just love this design, I think it would be a cool tattoo. It is clean, minimalist but also at the same time it isn't minimalist. It plays off many art types.
I love how rustic this looks. I think it is fun and the variety of fonts adds to it's look. It also is inspiring. I would buy a product that had this on just because I enjoy the way it looks.

1. I do believe that my stance is clear within my poster. The division of the poster supports the theme of inequality. Also, the girl with books and the girl without books also helps to enhance the theme. Lastly, the division of the poster and varying shapes helps to show how inequality effects people.

2. My thumbnails sketches looked nothing like the final project. My initial thumbnail sketch was of a scale however it did not correctly communicate my idea. I believe that if I didn't lose my project, the final digital copy would have been a lot better and would have thoroughly communciated my idea. Im satisfied with my poster but my original one is much better. I think my poster is fine and communicates the theme in an adequate way.

3. I divided my poster in to two section and I wanted there to be a little more imbalance within the poster in order to show the inequality so I divided it into three sections. Another change I made was using the same image from the internet. At first, I was going to use different images to communicate wealth v. poverty however I felt it would be more effective if I used the same girl. Like I mentioned before I cut the pile of books out of the girl in order to communicate poverty.

4. After reviewing the rubric I believe that the concept of my poster is the strongest. The quote from Bernie Sanders makes sense to the poster as a whole. Also, I think that the large amount of money on one girl and a smaller amount of money on the other are thoughtfully done and supports the concept.

5. The most challenging part of this project was trying to weave in aspects of inequality and imbalance in order to support the concept without it looking like everything is off. I needed to find a balance while trying to achieve an imbalance.

6. Technically the most difficult part of this project was everything. I find illustrator really difficult to work with. The way things are selected confused me and caused me to redo things I have moved around quite frequently.

My Stance!!!!

1) I typically share posts that I find funny or interesting. Current topics that I believe in I share on my Facebook such as Feminism and Climate Change. I don't go crazy sharing things but I do participate in the activity. It may be annoying to some people but in all honesty I do not care because I share it for the people who I know will enjoy it as well as for myself to keep. 


2) ) This was the only thing I could think of and it isn't necessarily a "public topic" however, it was an instagram caption displayed to the public. Pardon the profanity but it states, "That lil ho** she a f**in thot all she good for is givin top bo bo bo boooom" Basically, this instagram caption states that women cannot express any form of sexual activity without being shamed for it. While in the mean time, he states that the only thing a woman is good for is providing sexual pleasure for a man but then after is called a slut. This "lyrical" instagram bio as referred to by some fellow classmates is not only extremely sexist, pathetic and horrible but it also quite paradoxical. If not evident enough, I hate this caption. This reinforces the patriarchy while in the mean time marginalizes women's sexuality.

Have you shared or liked a post that is a current issue or topic that is important to you? Is there an oppositional view? Why do you think your stance is right? Why are "they" wrong?
I liked this post that my friend put on her page. Feminism is important to me because I believe in equality and breaking down the numerous stereotype that I am associated with because I am a woman. I also don't believe that I need to adhere to specific standards just because of my gender, I am my own person and therefore I can do whatever I want, if I don't want to put on makeup so be it, I don't have to. (wow that was a run on sentence)  I refuse to be put down because of my gender. The oppositional viewpoint is that feminists are just men haters who complain too much, don't shave and believe they are too entitled. I could go on a whole rant but I will spare you, basically it is stated up above. When people say they hate feminism it makes my skin crawl. They are wrong about feminism because that just isn't simply what it means. 

3) I am very concerned that our planet will explode or humanity will implode (because people are stupid) and either way we will all die.
