Learning aim A: Design a digital portfolio
Gathering Assets

You need to include a list of all the resources (assets) you will use. This includes logos, texts, images, video, audio tracks and other content that your site will contain, with details of where they have come from and where these assets will be used. This is a working document and you can add assets at any time.

Suitable assets can be those you create yourself (your Recycle With Michael Logo and Recycle with Michael Advertisement) and those you have gathered online.

Activity 1

Download the Assets Table and save it into your Digital Portfolio folder.

Remember anything you have created yourself (your graphics, your animation and work from other subjects) are counted as Primary Sources, anything from the internet are counted as Secondary.
