Student Choice
I recommend waiting a few projects before you do this one. That way you can learn a few things and will be more ready with the skills and understanding of techniques so you will be successful with this one.
For this project you will create the theme. You still need to do the research and sketches, but it's your choice as what you will be creating. If you really liked a particular project, this could be a chance to do another one like it. Good luck!
