Post two different ideas of final products that you might be interested in making. For each one, do the following:

1. Write a sentence describing the final product:
A photography product showing the trashcans (or lack of) and the garbage on the beach, and captions on what information I have found.

2. Post an example of a professional or other high-level product that could serve as a basis for your work.

3. List three specific ideas that you can take from your example to lead you to a high quality product. Write specifically how you will apply these ideas to your work here. Be as clear, exact & specific as you can!

-I like the lighting in the trash can picture, so I can try to take my pictures at a good time of day where the lighting will make more pop out.

-I can also try to get a picture of how many trashcans there are on the beach from a higher poit perspective. The first picture inspired me.

-I can get pictures of the trash along the shore, and try to find out where it's all coming from, and write about it in my captions.

1. Write a sentence describing the final product:

I could make a video/documentary on how dirty the shores are, and film interviews, and the beach itself.

2. Post an example of a professional or other high-level product that could serve as a basis for your work.

3. List three specific ideas that you can take from your example to lead you to a high quality product. Write specifically how you will apply these ideas to your work here. Be as clear, exact & specific as you can!

-I could sort of connect my project to the North Pacific Gyre by adding in a little fact or two abut it as a way to show one of the biggest effects of littering.

-I could film interviews with organizations trying to help this as well as other sources.

-I could present my facts in a more fun way in the video, and add more personality to the narration.
