The objective of the CTE EXPO was to create business cards, post them on a poster board with details on how it came to fruition, and present the project to others at the CTE EXPO. Now to prepare for the CTE EXPO, I first designed my business cards on Adobe programs primarily on Illustrator and InDesign. I designed my logos on Adobe Illustrator which were the logos created in Project 3 Logo. (↓↓↓ Link down below ↓↓↓). I designed my layouts, placed my logos, and typed in fake information about my business cards on Adobe InDesign. I designed 3 different layouts with 3 different logos to create 9 different types of business cards. I printed the business cards by paper and pasted them on my poster board. I colored my poster board with crayons to decorate the poster board. I pasted additional information relating to the project like fun facts and conclusion. Lastly, I got dressed in the most professional attire I could wear for the CTE EXPO. During the actual event of the CTE EXPO I stood around next to my project, talk to the guests that walked in, presented my project to the guest, advertised about the CTE academy, and directed guests to the next presentation. I think the energy during the CTE Expo was positive because there were guests interested in the CTE EXPO, presenters smiling and talking about their projects, people walking around, and was very lively. There should be varying types of projects that sophomores present to the guests. Now instead of having posterboard after posterboard to have variety, more eye appealing, less boring, and have better attention spans from the guest next year since the guest didn't appear to be interested in the project boards one after another with similar information. My overall feeling of the CTE Expo was very serious, slightly stressed, agitated, nervous, and energetic. Also, experiencing this CTE EXPO gave me a glimpse of what it is like to sell a product in front of an innattentive audience.
