Do not make a project consiting of random projects from other classes.
If the project is self-promotional, then make it about a few series of your works in a limitted media.

You can, however, make a project about your friend's band or an unknown artist.

- It needs to have things that you click on, mouse over, and/or drag to make stuff happen
( or use keyboard input ).
- It needs to work.
- This thing should look amazing.
- If you are not comfortable drawing it in Flash, then build it by hand or with other programs.

Things you will turn in
