You can refer to your previous experience here.I think that I will become a lot more creative from doing this project as I think it will help me create more unique styles and house styles because that is what this project is based on. We need to create a professional high standard unique product which I think will help my creativity. I also think that I will learn a lot within Photoshop when it comes to the colours and changing the image. I would like to learn a lot more about making an old image look more original because that is what we are going to need to learn and I think it will be good for the future because I will then be able to come up with more unique ideas for different pieces of work. To challenge myself I am going to try making my product as unique as I can because I find it hard to come up with something that I have created myself.What technical opportunities for development are available in this project?

It is professional because we are working from and developing a brief and that is what a lot of professional working people would do so they know exactly what they are suppose to be doing, so doing this now will help us in the future if we ever need to work against a brief. We are also taking an original brand and developing it to our own unique house style and we are creating something of our own to a professional standard. Doing this will help us when it comes to doing other projects such as web designing, graphic design, copywriting and marketing.What opportunities for designing for different media does this project give you? Which final product type interests you the most and why?

Doing this project will help me in the future when it comes to making web adverts, posters or other styles of adverting. As this is an advertising project I am able to pick any type of advert to do and I think that which ever one I choose will increase my skills for the future. I think that the most interesting advert I could do would be a web advert where it is animated.
