EQ 3

Explain at least two difference between Photoshop and Illustrator. Which one do you like better and why?

2 big differences I noticed was, Illustrator uses vector lines so that the image does not show any pixels no matter how far you zoom in. Another difference would be that there is no fill tool in Illustrator and makes it difficult to fill an area with color and or a gradient. I don't necessarily like one better than the other, they both have unique features that work really well and I use both programs like they were one.

EQ2

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 projects would be creating logos. Anything where Im using my own ideas is always more fun then being told what to create. Logos are also simple and can be crafted into anything and everything and its just a really fun area where you can do whatever you can imagine.

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.

Many different factors come into consideration when starting a business such as location, image, advertising, cost, and time. Location is a huge factor that can largely impact your business, depending on your market will determine the amount of traffic you will want around your business. A local cafe would be better off in a more rural area than say a lumber yard where more space would be needed to maneuver. Image is another key factor, its how you will present yourself in the market and how the public will view you. Advertising is just as important, its a way to show what your business has to offer and helps get your business out there. Cost and time go together but are both equal in importance. You need to think of how long it will take to get up and running and at what cost. All in all, these are just some key factors that are good building blocks to start with.
