Media is my intended major, so I was sure to enjoy taking this class. As an artist I find learning all of the technical terms behind creating media a little tedious, but am also aware that it is essential in furthering my ability and reaching my potential within this field.
Early in the semester we focused on a part of media I really admire and hope to excel in, Film and Photography. Learning everything about angles and lighting will definitely come in hand very soon for me. However I do wish we had more hands on experience using cameras. Also, I really wanted to dabble with Final Cut.
The part of the semester I believe I excelled in was using Photoshop. I've always liked using Photoshop, but never used it extensively. This semester, with the help of the T.A. Chloe, I learned a lot of the ins and outs of Photoshop, and gained an increased interest in it. This interest has motivated to buy books and how-to's for Photoshop. I hope to eventually master Photoshop and perhaps find a career using my talents in it.
Overall, this semester was a great experience. I felt like I struggled with learning all of the terms but I feel like my hands on work took huge progressive steps. I hope to take 160 next semester and continue learning.
