I chose to use Canva to create my advertisement. I really liked Canva because there is so many templates you can use for inspiration, there is is many features like stickers or pictures to make your advertisement stand out, and it has a very straight forward layout making it easy to use. The only thing i disliked about Canva was that so many of the stickers and templates were “pro” meaning you had to pay for it. A couple challenges we faced were, tying to decide where to make our ad to make sure our ad was created to the best of out abilities and choosing a price, I wanted a cheaper price while my partner wanted a higher price, we ended up coming to a compromise in the middle. Our print ad is affective because of how we organized the ad. We bolded important words which draws attention, made the cupcake big and the title of the poster big, again to draw attention, and we also put contact information so if there are any questions or issues, they know how to contact us. During this project I demonstrated a few core competencies within communication. I showed I can work with others to achieve a common goal; I do my share. Since this was a partner project we had to complete the assignment by a certain day and do it cooperatively. We split the work and got it done in time, we both did our fair share of work. I showed I can take on roles and responsibilities in a group by doing my fair share and compromising with my partner. I also showed I can summarize key ideas and identify the ways we agree by talking to my partner about our different ideas and coming to a decision together.
