Part1:
For the webpage recreation,I wanted to do something funny and satirical. I liked the layout of Groupon's web page and the context is already pretty quirky. I put the groping twist on it and added text, objects, and web images and photos. Overall, i think it is a successful remake that stays visually true to the original.

Part 2:
For the second part of the project, I had a hard time deciding on a topic and concept. I don't have strong feelings about any particular social or political topic, so I decided to just choose Occupy Wall Street since it is so current. I designed and intended these "Occupy Tent City" shirts to be worn by homeless people around Reno to make a statement about the burdens caused by corporate greed. The protesters involved in Occupy Wall Street chose to be there to make a statement, but the people living in tent city really had no choice; they are the ones that are making the real statement. They are victims of greed and we should be paying attention to the nationwide problem of homelessness.
