Project Selection-My Decision
For my AICE project, I have chosen to do a magazine for many reasons. First of all, I have experience in Microsoft programs such as Word and PowerPoint which should help me use Microsoft Publisher more efficiently. I have access to cameras that will take quality pictures. I am very good writing and reading skills and a great work ethic. These skills and qualities will help me make the best magazine possible for my project. My partner, Erik Hvideberg, and I will create a magazine of fishing in Sarasota, Fl. We will make two separate issues, one salt water and one freshwater, and explain certain techniques and tips for fishing. Erik and I will both write, design, and take pictures concerning the project. Erik has many experiences with taking quality pictures of fish which will help greatly.

Project Selection-Film
A film for my AICE project would be very fun and challenging in many ways. A film would be fun because I would be able to go to different settings and film with a nice camera. I would get to learn how to use this camera which could help me in my future. Also, I could learn how to manage actors and write scripts. One of the challenges to making a film would be learning how to edit it. This would be very difficult considering that I have no experience in editing. Obtaining a high quality camera and learning to use I would also take up time and be very stressful. A film could turn out great if using the camera is not hard, but it most likely will be.

Project Selection-Magazine
A magazine would be a great choice for many reasons but it would also offer some challenges. In a magazine, an article would be presented which is comfortable for me. I am pretty good at writing and explaining information, especially information that I am knowledgeable about. The magazine would also offer opportunities to take clear and creative pictures. Also many challenges would be presented such as the creation of the magazine. It will be tough to make the different pages and their design perfect with the program we are doing it on. I am not familiar with the program either so that will make it even more challenging. Getting clear pictures will also be hard because I do not own a great camera. I will either have to purchase one or borrow it from a family member or friend.
