I made a few small changes to my slide because I was not told to change much by my group members. The changes I made were both to the text in my slide, when I mentioned that the text was not completely black, just a dark blue to make the total effect softer, it was suggested that I made the blue lighter since they could not tell that the text was not black until I pointed it out. The other change was to make the text shorter, from “Persevere through difficult times because things will get better.” to “Persevere through difficult times, things will get better.”, taking out the “because” and replacing it with a comma. Research is important when beginning your project because it can prevent a lot of problems that could have been avoided all together in the first place if you had just taken the time to research before you started.

When I was creating my slide, one of the first things I thought about was keeping it simple but able to get the point across effectively. To do this, I did my best to make it as visual as possible, with a minimal amount of words, and making the existing words font size as large as possible. Then I decided to make sure there was extreme contrast in the background so that the entire slide was eye-catching and clear. I kept most of the textures neat and smooth. When I was choosing an image, I wanted one that would complement the look of the text, so I chose one with horizontal lines that would match. When I was choosing a value for the color, I wanted it to stand out, but I did not want it to be too harsh, so I chose a dark blue. When considering balance, my slide is asymmetrical because I wanted to use thirds. I did not want the text or the image overpowering the other so I kept the sizes similar. When I was setting up the placement of text and images on my slide, I split it into thirds, putting the text up top and the image in the bottom righthand corner, and so that the slide was not visually overwhelming Ieft the rest as empty space.
