2. The state I will live in is California and my state tax bracket is 8%. 3. My Federal tax burden is $1,811.71 plus 8% of the amount over $52,455. 4. I will have $3443.52 per month. 5. After subtracting other costs I will most likely have enough money to eat but money will be tight and I will be living pay check by pay check. The job I want doesn't pay that much and after taxes I won't have enough money. 6. The overbearing taxes don't make me consider living in a different state because what I want to do is prominent in California so if I stay in California I can acquire good experiences and receive good opportunities. 7. State and federal taxes pay for roads, education and schools, military, healthcare, social security. 1. My logo reflects me because I like the way it looks. It is symmetric and has dark colors which I find very visually appealing.
2. My favorite part of my logo are that the 2 As are perfectly symmetric with each other. 3.

A good complimentary color to my signature color would be black or white because those colors are very similar in tone to my signature color. 4. A good analogous color to my signature color would be pink because it is very bright unlike my signature color that is neutral. The Spotify logo uses the colors black and green and uses a complementary color scheme.
The google logo uses the colors blue, red, yellow, and green and uses a tetradic color scheme. 1. The principles I animated are staging, straight ahead, timing, exaggeration, and appeal.
2. It was easy to use puppet wrap because it allowed me to animated the objects in the exact way I wanted. 3. I like that the characters roll to each other because it looks funny. 4. I would change the frame where they hug to be more clean instead of the objects just merging together. |
