EQ 3--Explain at least two differences between Photoshop and Illustrator. Which one do you like better and why?

Photoshop uses pixels for its images and Illustrator uses vectors for its images which consists of lines.  Illustrator has a spray tool where you can spray images onto the page, Photoshop does not have this tool.  Illustrator has the crystallize tool to add edges or spikes onto a line, this tool is not found on Photoshop.  I like Illustrator more because it does not matter how much you zoom in, the image will still be clear.  When you zoom in on Photoshop, eventually the image will become blurry.

EQ 2--What has been your favorite project so far and why? Upload the project and explain why it has been your favorite.

     My favorite project so far has been creating a business and a logo for the business.  It's been my favorite project because it helps you to think and be creative.  Perhaps if I would ever want to start my own business, this would benefit me because I would have had a previous chance to think about different topics such as creating a logo and finding an original product.  Mrs. Stalnaker has also taught us different things about logos such as color and simplicity.  The project was beneficial and was a fun experience.

EQ 1

EQ 1--What do you need to do to start a business? Try to list and explain at least 5 things that you would need to consider.

     Starting a business is taking a risk, but it could possibly be very rewarding.  Making a website and developing forms of advertisement are necessary.  Advertisement is very necessary for gaining customers, especially for a new business.  Next, developing relationships with clients is vital.  Develop a positive relationship with them that will last.  If going into business with partners, make sure everyone is on the same page and make sure they are reliable and trustworthy.  Everyone will work better together and be more effective. Develop a product or service that everyone is satisfied and confident with.  This gives everyone confidence that they have a premium product or service to sell. Analyze the costs of running the business and make budgets.  This helps ensure that the business will last and further improve. These are five things that one would need to consider when starting a business.
