Starter Pack
Project Brief
Create a "Starter Pack" for yourself.
If you haven't seen them before, "starter packs" are memes created and shared satirically and usually highlight stereotypes. They are usually fairly low quality in terms of graphic design standards. The name comes from various kits you can buy at the store, like the electric guitar starter pack on the right.
Your task is to create a collage of images that show things someone would need to be like you.
