Peer Review

 While presenting the portfolio project, I was able to get lots of feedback from my peers and my teacher about the pros and the cons of it. Overall, despite positive comments about the looks of the photography and the overall idea and theme, I have a lot of areas that I need to improve; these stretch from what pictures I should use, the organization of my paragraphs, and the consistency of what font I use. Little details were also pointed out to make sure that my magazine does not have any flaws, such as centering the title in the cover page and change the color to a more noticeable one that does not blend in with the background. The inconsistency between my front cover and the rest of my magazine was also pointed out, as it seems to shift from a classy theme to a more patriotic one, so I will need to work to mix the two together. I was missing a few elements that I will add in the following days, such as more subheadings in the front to catch more attention, my name, and the month and year in which the article was published. I feel confident in the direction of my project and I’m glad I received so much feedback on it as I can now work on it having a clearer goal. I need to fix everything I discussed as they are required for the best passing score of the piece, and I am more than happy to take it on and do the best work I can.

Here, I will be asking about how such a successful business was able to integrate and adapt to the American ways while still maintaining the core values of the I talian culture, while capturing photographs of its iconic bar, along with some of their most famous dishes, as well as  the renowned pizza. As for Peppe, owner of “ Napoule ’”,  I will specifically  be focused  on tradition. He has been in the restaurant business for the past 15 years, ...

Storyboard

  Creating a storyboard has been the most fun  part of the project so far; I had not gotten the chance to be creative and draw for an assignment in a very long time, and I was very pleased to do it. It gave insight on what my final project should look like when I go to turn it in, and I feel good about the ideas that I came up with, because they allowed me to really visualize the final project.  Reading the article “ Filmmaking across the curriculum: a beginner's guide” I learned that  “ This is where you plan the composition and framing of the shots for your production. Storyboards are used for both animation and live action productions.” A storyboard is essentially your outli ne, which guides you to your end product. The article   “ Storyboard your way to success also recognizes that it is “a fle xible and comprehensive tool that can be used by a group to devise creative concepts” and I could not agree with it mo re.
