For my kite project, I decided to choose the Amazon Jungle to try to bring more awareness about deforestation in the area. I took an image of the Amazon half alive and half cut down. I added many of the animals that are endangered to show what will go missing after all the fire and destruction. I used the Bengal Tiger in the middle to symbolize species going extinct because of deforestation. I chose to do this as my project in memory of the 9/11 attacks in 2001. My Dad was working relatively close to the buildings when they collapsed so it is something I will remember. I tried to show an image of the car from back to the future zooming out of the old World Trade center and into the new one, to show that there is still something standing there after what happened. For my GIF, I experimented with a random background with my image in it. I implemented a soccer ball and tried to make a short animation of me kicking the ball.
