Capstone Presentations

Capstone Presentation 

My Capstone project looked pretty good in my personal opinion. I feel as if my presentation to the judges went pretty good, it was less stressful than I expected it to be. The only thing I got caught up on was when the judge asked me where a specific statistic came from and I was unsure of where it was from. I feel as if I was kind of ripped off because I spent so much time working on this for five minutes of speaking. It was kind of a let down but I'm glad it's over.

Capstone Booth

My capstone end product is about art therapy within the home. I am creating coloring pages. I will have the pages on the table for the judges to see and even interact with if they would like they will able to use mediums such as coloring pencils, crayons, and markers. My tri-fold is bright blue and I hope it will attract attention. I will also have a splatter painted tablecloth.

Painting What We See Within (Infographic)

My infographic shows how art therapy can help anyone and everyone, my ultimate end goal for my capstone is to spread awareness and integrating art therapy into the home. This project assists with spreading awareness. I did have to do a little extra research because there are so few statistics about art therapy. The hardest thing about creating my infographic would be aligning the words in the middle section to fit. I originally created a infographic in winter term but I was not a big fan of it, I took some of the info and reworked it into this poster. I am satisfied with my poster and feel that it is complete.

My main idea for my capstone poster is to show how flexible art therapy. I wont to do something similar to my PSA with the different statistics and show how art therapy can help a wide variety of diseases and mental illnesses.

I am not really sure how I am going to set it up but I would like it to be very simple with bright colors to draw attention.

I thought this PSA was pretty cute and made the point that education is important and schools.

How to write a PSA

I think the biggest thing I noticed was the importance of creativity. There are hundreds of Public Service Announcements out there, and the things that will make people notice yours is the creativity. It needs to be simple and easy to understand but also different from the typical cookie cutter video. I found this article extremely helpful.
