My article was about the prevalent use of 3D printing. I am either going use an article about the world's first 3D photobooth that opened in Japan or the emergence of printing in the medical field.

These are just really basic ideas for my final poster. My finals will probably look nothing like this X_X

(Article about Ashlyn Blocker and her inability to feel pain, or extreme temperatures)

My final product is more than likely going to be nothing like this. My brain is fried and I'm not anywhere near satisfied/happy with these few roughs. So, bear with me! :)

Editorial Final Project

(250 words) (Super late)

I chose to do my last project over Ashlyn Blocker. One of my earliest memories of super powers, besides the Power Puff Girls, was the idea of not being able to feel pain. ( This was my first grade year, so I did not really think it through.) I thought it was the one to trump all the other super powers. But, really, it's only cool if you have the power of regeneration.
   But a few years after this thought, I saw a segment on the news, or a morning show, of a girl who couldn't feel any pain, Ashlyn Blocker. She was four or five years old at the time, and her parents talked about how she would run into furniture and not even be phased by jamming her finger in a drawer. It totally amazed me. She could feel no pain. She could feel pressure, like a hug or a high-five, but she could not feel extreme high or low temperatures or things like being stabbed or feeling an internal injury, like a broken limb. The doctors labled her disorder as "Congenital insensitivity to pain", and that's all they could do.
   For this article, I want to portray a girl not giving a care in the world while she's being stabbed or pain is being inflicted on her somehow.

 ...I wonder what Google must think of me now.

I've chosen an article about concussions in football. Specifically youth football because this hits close to home with me because my older son began playing full contact football this past season.  I personally (obviously) am unopposed to him playing, but this does not mean I am unconcerned about this issue, quite the contrary, I believe starting off at the youth age groups is the much better way to help prevent concussions.  At the youth level teams are divided primarily by weight and the majority of the boys are still learning to move at any decent rate of speed.  I believe that throwing them in at say the high school level without teaching them the fundamentals of heads up shoulder tacking is a much bigger way to increase concussions. So my concept is to try and show an "impact" and incorporate a brain interspersed with images of youth and higher competition levels.  The challenge is keeping it graphically simple enough that the concept comes across without over muddling the image.

I have chosen an article on Black Friday. The article talks about how the day has turned into a holiday that is observed across America just like any other holiday. Further, how Black Friday has started to overlap into Thanksgiving day and remove the meaning behind that day, which is to stir a feeling of appreciation and giving. Instead, people are thinking of shopping and sales. I have experienced this transfer first hand, as recently, Black Friday ads and coupons and such have been brought to the Thanksgiving table. Instead of "pass the green beans", we hear "pass the Sears ad".

I have a few ideas for the project. I would like to show traditional Thanksgiving images, but mix in images to suggest the anticipation of Black Friday taking importance over Thanksgiving day. Possibly a calendar with Black Friday very decorated/circled, while Thanksgiving isn't noted. I will show my few ideas in the thumbnails.

Depending on which route I choose, I will shoot a photo of thanksgiving dinner, a calendar, or the lines of people on Black Friday.
