Reflection blog post

Although I enjoyed most of the projects in Com210, my favorite had to be our last project where we created a video relating to our theme. This was my favorite because I already had experience in premier and was able to show off my pre-existing skills. On the other had I did not have very much experience in illustrator. I think I will use this program to create icons and make logos in the future. I am double majoring in advertisement and media production. The use of adobe suit will very much be useful in my future career. For example, if I need to create a commercial, I can use premier and design advertisement in photoshop. As far as things I wish we could have learned in this class, I wish we could have learned some animation. I felt that the audio unit was very boring and not super useful. I feel the time would have gone to better use if we could have learned about animation. It was even stated in the course that adobe audition is not the best program for editing sound. Lessons in a program that is more relevant would have been a better use of time. A cite that I found useful was defiantly WordPress. Because of the requirements in the beginning I now know hot to set up a personal website. This will defiantly be useful in the future. For example, I plan on showing off my creative portfolio online and WordPress is defiantly a viable option for that. As far as comments for the class I hold the opinion that attendance should not be mandatory. I personally did not have any troubles in the class and therefore did not need the help of the teacher assistant. Therefore, it was a waste of time for me to walk to class and do nothing for 20 minutes. Other than that, I enjoyed the course and am happy about the skills that I learned through the course.
