This document provides an opportunity to reflect on the progress made in the first 7 units of the course. It asks the student to think about what they have learned so far and how this has influenced their choice of final major project (FMP). The student then provides details about their FMP idea, which is to create promotional products for a video game, including posters, box art, animation, and an artwork book. They explain that they chose this idea because they are interested in and knowledgeable about video games. The goal is to create products that audiences can relate to and that convey the serious tone and photorealistic style of the hypothetical game.

this has influenced your choice of pathway and your FMP.

images andphotography.
