-Make something for your portfolio
Things to think about:
What do YOU want to make?
Will it be for fun, or purely informative?
What will it look like?

Will there be sound?
Who is your audience?
Who would want to look at this project?
Things ryanSmith doesn't want you to do:
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.
Do not make a project about a mainstream band, musician or visual artist.
You can, however, make a project about your friend's band or an unknown artist.
