A Little Bit About Me…

I have a brother who is always fun to be around; I also have 2 kind, loving parents, who I would never ask for better ones. I have no pets at home, because my aunt is deathly allergic, so we don’t have any pets. When I’m not doing homework or chores, I like to enjoy nature, paint, draw, or even weave bracelets. When I’m not doing any of my hobbies, I am spending my time with my family. on Sundays, we watch Football as a family. Although my brother and I aren’t very interested in this, we watch our parents cheer for their favorite team with joy. When our parents are watching “the Game”, my brother and I go for a bike ride, play board games, such as Jenga, or sometimes we make up our own card games with cards we make ourselves. Whatever we do together, we always have a great time.

Reflection

Reflection Q 1: What is innovative about your visual representation?

My representation is innovative because my costume can keep me warm and cool. My parka keeps me warm in freezing temperatures, and my yoga pants keep me cool in the warmer times of the day. My dog can help find food to help me keep myself and my little companion alive.

Reflection Q 2: How did you develop your Ideas while working on this project?

I did have one idea that I thought would be awesome, but as it turns out, the website that we used restricted my idea, so I put together a comfortable, beautiful, and functional costume that would scream my personality, qualities, and my style.

Reflection Q 3: What did you enjoy about your visual representation?

I enjoyed the fact that you had the option to have a pet with your costume, and you could dye them bright colors. I also liked that there was leggings instead of just pants. The shirts were not my taste, so I found a cute parka that I liked, so I put that on my character.

Reflection Q 4: What would you improve on for next time?

My final result on my character was after four or five tries, trying to make it look like me, and I ended up going back to the home page of the website, then I finally got it, then made this.

Reflection Q 5: What did you learn about your creative ability during this process?

I didn’t realize right away that I wouldn’t like some of the choices, so I made a “trashy” looking outfit, according to some of my peers, so I made it a little bit out of my comfort zone to create something that could keep me cool, and warm, plus, all in a functional way. I didn’t get the warm/cool thing right away; then it hit me. If I didn’t like what was given to me, I would have to persevere, which can be counted as creative thinking. Then, after my brainstorm, I created my Tribute Costume that’s functional, comfortable, and great!
