International Photo Contest

Two weeks ago AU sent out an email inviting everyone to participate in a International Photo Contest. This definitely sparked my attention seeing it was my first opportunity to enter into a photo contest. I began searching through my international photos from Jamaica and Venezuela. I chose three pictures (the limit) from Jamaica. After waiting FOREVER, they finally released the winners. Although I was not a winner, I received TWO honorable mentions and my pictures posted on the international billboard. The top three winners were well deserved! They were gorgeous! Below are the photos I submitted.

The top two are the ones that received an honorable mention. Enjoy!

For my Economic class, we were given the opportunity to enter into a video contest about financial literacy.  The organization is called Share the Wealth.  My roommate and I teamed up and decided the subject should be budgeting.  After brain storming we drafted a script and ideas for the animation.  It took me roughly seven hours to complete the animation in After Effects.  Share the Wealth will announce the winners on December 14, 2011.  Hope you enjoy!
