Photoshop Project

Billboard Creation

Through my Photoshop project group, I learned the basic tools to crop, cut and place images onto a canvas. In addition, I learned how to add shadow effects and texts onto the image as well. This project group taught me how to correct lighting on pictures so everything looks the same. I can use these skills to create images for businesses in the future.

Information Interview

MMC ALUM Information Interview

I had an informational interview over the phone with an MMC Alum. I will not share her name for confidentiality reasons. During the phone interview I was able to hear about her career thus far and learn from her experiences. She gave me great insight on what it is like jot start out in the industry and how to separate myself from others. The MMC Alum invited me to visit the Under Armour headquarters in Baltimore where I was fully immersed in the company for a day. I learned about large company culture and what hard work and dedication can do. I enjoyed my time at Under Armour and would love the opportunity to work there some day.

SoulCycle Marketing Project

Through this marketing project, I learned about how to change a company’s demographic. I learned about celebrity endorsers and how social media can boost a company’s credibility as well. With my SoulCycle project in particular we analyzed it’s strengths and weaknesses in the field and figured out what they could do to give them a competitive edge against other fitness companies. In addition, I looked at how the company can grow and diversify their products.
