Notas del editor
The criteria for the portfolio is in the under phase V in the project handout. Feel free to make any changes you would like and I wasn’t sure which background to choose, so feel free to change that as well if you want. The “Zara: Fast Fashion” is supposed to be the company/ brand description, I wasn’t sure what to put for the brand description.
I forgot to include radio broadcasting, and you can probably make mass media 2 slides. Maybe put magazines and magazine ads on one slide, and billboards and radio broadcasting on the other slide. That way it’s not bunched up.
