I visual from SketchUp.

• I, Mario Men., affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 30 hours of work
• Homes : Issues + Processes. London: Black Dog Pub, 2011. & Color and Design. London ; New York: Berg Publishers, 2012. I also worked with my mentor Ernesto Lopez who has been working with businesses for a while now.
• Independent Component 2
• I worked on prom for the majority of the time and also read these two books. I helped with my mentor also so that I can get an understanding by what the books were saying. I also started the process for my sister's wedding and really just did some of the same things that I did for prom. I focused a lot on making sure prom comes out well. I finished with my 30 hours but I'm not done with my IC really until May 6th because that is when prom takes places and the main purpose of the IC2 is for me to see the result and what people think. So I will have to wait till then to finish the prom aspect of my IC.
• The first two pictures are the books that I read over the course. The pictures of outside is the place that I went to go see with my sister her in Claremont. We discced about the contract and and due to personal information I couldn't display that. The final picture is at mentroship with one the projects and what we did to make the place more accessible to everyone that comes into the store. I don't have any results of prom because prom is not here but will post them up as soon as I can.  
• How did the component help you answer your EQ? 
• It really helped me understand the client's perspective and also really try to know the client. I got that sense of what the client feels when working with them because I felt it with not only at my mentorship but also with ASB. I had to work with what they gave me and make sure it comes out nice, I needed to blend all their ideas to one and also try to visualize it quick so I can give answers to them. It made me understand the thought process of a designer and what that person has to do with cleints. I got that feeling of i was in changer and I had to make sure I didn't give a wrong idea.

 

Blog 22 - Interview 4 Reflection

A magazine cover. 

Interview 4

1. What is the most important thing I learned from the interview?
1. I learned that everyone said about the same thing in all interview so it shows how similar they all are even if they do their jobs in different places. I find it interesting also on how this person really talked more on advice than just answering the questions.
2. How will what I learned affect my final lesson?
1. It will make me understand my topic even better and also prepare me to know what to say. I got an incite on how the live of a designer is and what they have to thing about when it comes to working.
