Latest Critique

After hearing some of the criticism I received, I can finally see where I need to improve my work. Some of my color choices didn't work too well, and I could've expanded on my title. My title was left in the middle all high and dry.

I think the reason my project came out the way it did was due to the fact that I was trying to do too much. I say that in a sense that I should've kept my project simple, and it would've turned out much better. Going further, I will try to tone things down a bit, but I still want to learn and experience new concepts and techniques. Things can only go up from here so I'm hoping that my next project turns out better than this one did.

The main thing that was frustrating about this project finding a Kinko's that would actually mount your magazine layout. I initially went to the Cheektowaga location because it's close to my job. After trying to get my flash drive to read, she then insisted to tell me that they didn't mount projects at that location. She then told me that I had to the Niagara Falls BLVD location. That location is nowhere near my house. Thanks Andrea! Andrea informed me that she went to the Elmwood location, and she didn't have any issues. I went there, and the printer chopped off most of my text. I then rushed home, and moved everything over. After emailing the store, I was able to mount my project. That was an experience to say the least. This project was so stressful because I had to get everything finished before I went to work.

Thanks again to everyone who gave me insightful criticism. I really appreciate your input. The other thing I didn’t like was the lack of communication of some of the co-workers at the FedEx locations. You would think that they would be more informed about what services they offered. It would’ve made things a lot easier.
