Independent Component 2

LITERAL
A. I, Stephany Huynh, affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 30 hours of work.
B. Paul Huang
C. 30 hour log
D. During the process of completing the 30 hours of my independent component, Paul Huang helped me review different advertisements and break down the thought process of it. He basically taught me skills that helped me improve the way I look at designs.

INTERPRETIVE
Paul and I spent an hour every Friday discussing about what worked and what didn't in different advertisements that we find online. Below are some of the websites where we fount the advertisements that we discussed about throughout the 30 hours.
Website 1
Website 2

APPLIED
Paul helped me get to all my answers for my EQ. He was the one that sparked the ideas for the answers during our sessions. An example would be during my interview with him, he helped me figure out my first answer. I asked him how a designer could create a design that appeals to everyone and he explained that they can't. He continued and said that designers focus on specific groups to make sure that advertisement satisfies their needs as opposed to making an advertisement that is trying to satisfy everyone but has conflicting ideas. And that is how I got my first answer.
