I plan to for the next week be looking at album covers and seeing what sells best. To make a comparison on what people like to what sells. Also I will be looking at what people like not just what they buy because people don't buy a cd because of the cover they buy it because they like the style of music.

1. The following people might be good resources for me (Explain why they are good resources):
I'm not sure yet. I'm going to ask my family though.

2. Some possible resources for research are:
Music producer, band manager, music store rep.

3. How will family, community, or industry benefit from this project?
I think that the industry could benefit depending on what I find about censorship. If I could find a way to end the fued about censorship I think that it could be totally changed.

4. What skills or understanding do you expect to develop and demonstrate in this project?
I think that during this project I will learn people skills. And how to say my point in an argument/debate without hurting anyone's feelings or making anyone angry.

WIWTD

During the free time given this week I would like to learn some more about premiere and sound booth. We have had the programs available all year but not learned very much about it. I want to know how they work and what they are used for. I am very interested in learning about sound booth because music is one of my favorite hobbies/pastimes. I want to learn about premiere because I enjoy movies and I know that premiere has something to do with movies. I would also like to learn how to make brushes in Photoshop, but that would be if I got finished early with premiere and sound booth. I am going to look up tutorials or web help for sound booth and premiere both. I would also like to learn about aftereffects because it has been there all year but, I never learned it. I would like to know about what exactly it does and what kind of things it can produce.
