Week 8 EOC: Creative Content

I want Püvera Water's creative content to include a web page, a commercial, and ad posters that can either be put on a stand where the product is being sold or in a magazine. The commercial will focus on the benefits the consumer will receive by buying the product and also how purchasing a bottle will benefit those who have been affected by the Typhoon in the Philippines. The web page will help promote the product by displaying the ad posters and also having the commercial on the front page. The web page will also serve as a place where consumers can go to find more information on the product itself and also the philosophy behind Püvera Water and the difference the organization is making. All creative content will be designed to portray the key things about the product: it's nutritional qualities, it's pure/simple qualities, and most importantly, its charitable qualities.

Week 7 EOC: The Pitch - Final Project

Millions of people in the Philippines are in need of clean water and shelter due to the raging Typhoon which recently hit the islands. In an effort to aid those who have been affected, I have decided to come out with a product to which all profits will be donated to those millions of people that are suffering from this disaster. My product will be Püvera Water. Püvera Water is pure spring water that is flavored by all natural fruit flavors. Püvera not only offers a clean and refreshing taste, but a supplement of different vitamins that are designed to support good health.  Püvera comes in two flavors: Dragon Fruit and Acai-blueberry pomegranate. These fruits were especially picked for their rich balance of nutrients and minerals. Dragon Fruit is high in Vitamin C, a vitamin that improves cardiac health and protects immune system deficiencies and also combats the common cold. The Acai berry, along with blueberry and pomegranate, contains high levels of anti-oxidants and minerals that possess disease preventing qualities and is also rich in Vitamin B and K which altogether protect against cancer and strengthen your bones while taking care of your skin and hair. Both natural flavors of the Dragon Fruit and Acai berry also provide a good amount of dietary fiber which helps maintain and clear cholesterol and even helps regulate your weight. With the choice of two, healthy and delicious flavors, purchasing a bottle of Püvera Water will not only benefit your health, but the health of others. Because this is a nonprofit organization, all proceeds will go towards the reconstruction of damaged homes and buildings as well as providing the people of the Philippines with pure, clean water. To get Püvera Water, just simply visit any local Whole Foods store and help others by helping yourself.

Week 6 EOC: Me x 3


MacBook Pro

I bought a MacBook Pro with my student discount being that its main use is supposed to be for school projects but I use it for so much more than that and ultimately, I feel that my MacBook is one of the things that reflects what kind of person I am. I’ve customized every single detail of MacBook so that it not only holds the things I find important, but also represents me in a way that my other items can’t. My wallpaper is a gradient combination of pastel colors which shows that I like kawaii (dollish/literally means “cuite” in Japanese) things, but then my wallpaper for my chrome homepage is a Star Wars storm trooper that represents my “nerdy” side. I also like to organize my folders by color coordination and apart from the visual aesthetics of my MacBook, I downloaded only what I consider to be my ultimate favorite movies and will never delete them from my computer because that’s the sentimental aspect I put into my MacBook since I have a deep love for films. In essence, my MacBook defines me as a creative and innovative individual who finds sentimental value in what seem miniscule but are significant details.

iPhone

My iPhone is very, very important to me. Though its purpose is for communication in the simplest terms such as calling, texting, and emailing, the main focus I have when I’m using my phone is communication by social networking. My phone isn’t solely for staying connected to my family and personal friends, but to stay connected with my followers and friends I have made all over the country through social networking sites/apps such as twitter, tumblr, and instagram.  But there is another way I use my phone and that is for advertising my works, bring awareness to what I do in the present and what I want to do in the future. I have an independent clothing line which I’ve been slowly building and through the thousands of followers I have, I am able to get my name and product out there. Also, I post videos that I have filmed and am constantly telling my followers what I’m up to so that they know my goals and hopefully when I need support on a certain project, I know they’ll be there to give me the views and feedback I need to progress. Almost everyone who knows me very well knows that I cannot be without my phone but often misunderstand my use for it. I do dream of making it big someday and getting my name out there and my iPhone allows me to do that and defines me as someone who communicates, connects, and inspires a mass amount of people through my work which ultimately are the baby steps to becoming famous.

2013 Black Hyundai Sonata

My most prized possession is my 2013 black Hyundai Sonata whom I have named Draco. My previous car was Roman, a 1994 red Honda Prelude passed down to me by my dad during my junior year in high school. It was a great car but being so old, only last me until my second year of college which began earlier this year. One of the spark plugs exploded which totaled the car and so I had to get a new car. Originally my heart was set on getting a Volkswagen CC because it resembled a luxury car even though it wasn’t but it was more than what I and my parents could afford so at first, my only choices were a Nissan Altima or a Toyota Corolla. I was a bit disappointed because my heart was so set on a CC but one day while we were on our way to look at cars, I saw someone driving what I thought looked like a similar, though bigger, version of a CC. It was a Hyundai Sonata and after that I didn’t want any other car. My mom took me to all the car places, made me test drive and check out all the cars she thought were suitable but I nothing compared to when we finally when to a Hyundai dealership and I test drove a Sonata. It was different and better than all the other cars I drove because not only did I choose it, but it chose me too. After some intense haggling, my mother was able to get the price down to exactly what we were looking to spend which further proved how meant to be it was. As for the color, I chose black because that’s the only color I love on cars. The pearl white was beautiful and was my second choice if there were to be no blacks available, but my heart was set on black because to me, black represents power, class, and sexiness. To be quite honest, I think one of my great talents is driving and not in the sense that I’m a good defensive driver, but in the sense that I could be a stuntman for action films kind of driving and when I drive my car now, I feel empowered and even though I’m driving 90mph on the I-15, the road is mine and I take it with class as I pass other cars elegantly  and this is what I think my car defines me as:  a strong, powerful, female that is swift but graceful.
