B is for bird

If I got to choose where I live in the future I would want to live in Cannes, France, or anywhere in the south of France. Although the cost of living is high there are numerous opportunities for jobs in this city. Since Cannes is the home of one of the biggest yearly film festivals in the world, it’s easy to make connections. It’s also next to the water, so there are tons of beaches, and if you live a bit outside the city or settle for a small place, rent can be as cheap as $1200USD a month, which isn’t great, but for how pretty Cannes is, I think it’s a good deal.

I found job listings for freelance video work, as well as production companies hiring assistants at studios.

I just decided to do something simple since I missed the full tutorial and had to learn the software alone, and I made a box that opens with a horse bouncing inside when you click the horse. I think you could send this horse to someone who is having a bad day, and it would cheer them up. The most difficult part about this assignment was definitely figuring out exactly how the software works and what I wanted to do for my project, but since I went with a simple idea, I think it turned out really well.

I made this poster using a graphic design program that is free. I used the color blue to compliment the idea of the word “surf” in the name of the band. I made it kind of look like a newspaper for a unique and eye-catching look and used a picture of the artist as the main focal point of the poster. I really like this artist’s music because it’s really calm and chill. This artist’s most popular song was popularized on TikTok and is a remix of an older song. Here is a link to that song: https://open.spotify.com/album/4MHHajvRTUHItDsvfdIC8B?si=2QAK5jLaQKyb7RF9Gin_VQ
