The Shoe Cup

Explanation of Project

The shoe cup is a creative design for a cup that will help hydrate athletes when they are out exercising. We wanted to brainstorm an idea that would be cost efficient and would allow consumers to get a long amout of use out of it. In the beginning of our brainstorming we did not use our first idea. It took time to figure out that we wanted to make our cup using a shoe. When we first came up with the idea of the shoe cup we werent sure if it was actually a good idea. But we remembered that every idea is a good idea and we gave it a go.

Reflection

I thought that we had a very good idea for our project. It was difficult to try to draw it out and explain to everyone what we were thinking. We had also just used Prezi for the first time and it was a good way to show our information but it seemed difficult because we were not familiar with the different tools of it and it was hard to change color and we were not able to get a picture of our shoe cup on the slide. If I would do something different to help make this project work better I would have chosen to do a poster rather then a powerpoint/ slideshow. It would have been easier to do a well detailed photo of it and people would have understood our idea more clearly. It would also would have been better for advertizing our shoe cup. People would have shown a greater interest in our idea
