Conceptual Self-Portrait
The memories and experiences that make me who I am
I think a large part of my maturity, my interests, and my quietness comes from me sticking to my brother all the time when I was younger. My brother is a huge part of my life and he has taught me a lot. There are several memories I have where he has said something or more often did something that has stuck with me to this day. For example, avoiding telling his friends where he was going so that they wouldn’t feel left out that they weren’t invited to the party held by a mutual friend. There was also when my brother would always buy something for me when he went somewhere with his friends, which taught me to be thoughtful of others. Most of my interests involve different games which were all introduced to me by my brother. I looked up to him when I was young and I still look up to him. |

All ABOUT Me (Multi-Me)
List of 10 different concepts in which I can be interacting with myself:
|
Which concept would be the most visually interesting and why?
I think that the “What do you want to do when you grow up?” topic will be the most visually interesting because it has a deeper meaning than say the “Things you do when you can’t sleep” topic. Also, it can use props to show different occupations. |

The Story
One day a black and white dog was taking a walk, when he came across a stream. To his horror there was a tan puppy getting carried away by the current. The black and white dog hurriedly ran beside the stream trying to catch up to the puppy. When he got to the puppy the black and white dog extended a paw towards the tan puppy and pulled him out of the water. Afterwards, he carried the puppy across the stream on his back. In the end, the black and white dog and the tan puppy found a new friend. |
