Week 8 - Final Week

  This week was the final week of this project and I had a lot to get on with. I started working on my 3d mounting piece which consisted of a cardboard box. First I had to wrap black poster paper around the cardboard box and tape it down. Let's just say I wish they had sold black wrapping paper, because that would've made this task so much easier for me and would've made it a lot more neater and professional looking. After all the wrapping and taping was done to the outside of the box I began doing the same in the inside except with some glue this time. It looked a bit better than if I had used the tape, so that went by well until some glue accidentally spilt inside the box after I had put the poster paper inside so it left a stain. Though that later got resolved with just putting the photos on it and using it to tick the photos to the box but there are still hints of it there.
  After sticking on the photos I had finished the 3d mounting piece. It didn't come out as professionally as I had wanted it too, but it does its job and makes the photos stand out in its own way.
  After that I had done folder work the rest of the day to finish off my sketchbook and perfect it to my ability.
  Overall for this project I would say I have accomplished my goal which was to learn and try and tackle this project as well as I can since it is out of my comfort zone and I don't usually deal with designing and carrying out designs. I definitely learned a lot on photoshop than I had before and hopefully that would come to good use. The thing I had most succeeded in during this project was the photographs in a whole, because they turned out to be quite good and well edited and I think that's what I was going to excel at in this project from the beginning.
