For this project the hardest aspect was choosing the direction of the visual. At first we wanted to compare and contrast the positive thoughts from society about pageants compared with the negative. We found that there were very few positive things society had to say about pageants in general when they dealt with kids. We decided that it would be most effective if we compared the physical/on the surface aspects of pageants to the emotional and mental effects that pageants have on children. By splitting Eden's face we were able to compare her natural and glitz state. Overall, after finding the initial direction the project went pretty smooth and working with Morgan was very easy and we worked well together in coming up with a powerful visual.
I was surprised that I found the audio portions of the projects more impacting to the overall message. With our project I think that the audio presentation really furthered the message Morgan and I were trying to convey on the poster. I think that the audio following the initial presentation of the poster helped solidify the detrimental emotional and mental effects of beauty pageants for young girls. All in all, I'm glad that their were both audio and visual elements to this project. It really portrayed all angles of the message and covered all elements.
