Unit 3 Point of Sales Booth 

The client required a “point of sales” exhibition space to display her children’s padlock at the upcoming toy expo. The “point of sales” exhibition space must include; a small counter and two chairs for staff, and CLICK CLACK signage. Students created the 3D presentation using SketchUp. The drawing was then placed in Photoshop and adjusted to fit the found photograph.
