One Stop Prom Shop

The one stop prom shop is a huge public event welcome to anyone with prom needs. It made its first debut last year and became a huge success. So many vendors and sponsors representing their companies trying to gain people's interest for more information. This event included raffles, a fashion show, pep assembly and more just to get people to love this event. My favorite would have to be the event. It was my first year of going to prom and I did not know where to get a dress, flowers or even where to go to eat. The one stop prom stop helped me I won a few raffles and gain some interesting deals that could help me.

For this year we have decided to do this event again since it became a huge success. Although, we wanted to make it bigger an better than before. For our job in IMDD we were welcomed to help. We had to plan the pep assembly to try an make sure people would go to this event. Our class broke up into different teams based on what we wanted to have in the assembly. There was the video team who were going to try and create a stop animation video to promote the event, the "morphs" who are a symbolic icon to the event, the game show team, and the audience involvement who coordinate mainly the whole event. I had chose the audience involvement team because I like to coordinate things and it sounded fun to come up with ways to get the audience involved.

For audience involvement we came up with ways to get people more involved. Some of our ideas included confetti, balloons, raffles, t-shirts and more. We were basically the ones who plan what's going to happen during the whole thing. Also, what people were going to get, how they were going to get it. It is a challenge but it is a challenged I'm ready to face I am determined to make sure this assembly is better than the year before.

Yearbook Design

Creating an option for the yearbook design was probably one project I struggled with. I think I struggled with this project because it is the design over 1,000 students may see. I am not saying I want my designs to be chosen but I did put a lot of effort into creating these designs. For my first design I thought mainly trying to stick to black and gold. I tried to recreate what our parking lot sort of looks like with gravel and paw prints with student names or companies written in it. However, when I got critiqued on my first design it was rough but I knew I had to make my second design better. The yearbook staff doesn't go for paw prints or our typical black and gold logo look. For my second design I tried to focus on our mascot a tiger. Although, not a picture of a clip art tiger but an actual tiger. I really liked the affect of having a black and white tiger but bringing out the gold in his eyes and words. I played with filters until I got a cool design for his face and created a shadow effect to make it look as if his face was descending in the background. The yearbook staff has chose the quote "every ending is a new beginning' so with the shadow of the tigers face kind of incorporates with the meaning of the quote. The ending is just the start of a new beginning. Even though I struggled with this project I did enjoy it and I am satisfied with my second design.
