Week 2!

Week 2:
Well, this week I finished my DVD cover, that took me Monday and tuesday to finish. Wednesday I added a few touch ups and moved on to my certificate. So far so good, I'm liking my idea and I feel good about it. I'm just trying to figure out how I am going to draw in the trunk, I probably should have done that before the actual branches. On Wednesday we learnt about the iPads and some assignments we're going to be doing on them. I enjoy using the iPads, not so thrilled about the copyright assignments. Got to be honest, right? Well on Thursday I worked on my certificate again, got some good progress in. It's been a simple 4 day week for me. Now for Friday, the big take off day. Flying to Mexico in the early morning, I'm scared yet very excited. It'll definitely be a new experience!

Week 1.5!

Week 1.5:  Well, this has been my official first week in communication media 20. So far it's been interesting and I have a feeling it's going to be a fast pace learning environment full of challenges. This week we have started to work on our hall pass, DVD cover and certificate contest entry. Hall pass = done. DVD = half way there-ish. Certificate = not started. I'll get them done. I'm usually very efficient, I'm just a bit of a perfectionist. I like to take my time when it comes to art and/or designing. Other than that we went on over to the room with all the fancy gadgets. Computers, sound boards, cameras, green screens .. So much stuff. Being in front of the camera is definitely not my thing. Personally, I find being behind the scenes more educational, you get to learn all the work that's put into a production. Plus, I really don't find interest in having hundreds of people watching me. I've been on the radio before, hosted my own show. But they couldn't see me.. That's totally different. 
That's this week in a nutshell. Hopefully next week I'll be able to get a lot done before I head off to Mexico!

Welcome To Communication Media 20/30!

Welcome to Communication Media 20/30! 

I joined this class late, but so far I am catching up. I finished my hall pass and now I am working on my DVD cover! So far so good. :) 
I took this class to fill up my period 2 spare but I should have taken it to begin with. I love working with Photoshop.
