My favorite project this semester of Multimedia Content Creation was when we worked on the use of Premiere to make videos, these past few weeks. Although it was our most recent project, I enjoyed it the most due to the collection of skills I had collected throughout the semester, and the general process of its creation, as well as what I was able to encapsulate in my video. Since it was a video, and we were given almost full creative maneuverability, I was able to loop the thoughts behind my video back to my “Artist’s Journey” theme for an easy topic.
The skills I learned from the tutorials and projects will come in useful if I ever need to use the various Adobe programs again. I am not overly sure if this will happen, if not for classes, because of my general dislike of Adobe in its user face and prices.
I hope to continue forward and become a 3D modeler for various purposes and my career. Though I am not exactly certain how the skills I have gained will help in that goal, I see there might be potential for those certain skills coming to light for one reason or another in due time.
Of course, considering my career goal, a program that would teach 3D modeling or animation would have been ideal, but as far as I know, Adobe does not have such a program. Other than that unorthodox request, I do not have any interest in expanding upon what we could have learned.
Though, I did not do much outside research to support my projects, I did however, often search for certain functions of the programs which I could not find myself or find in the tutorials, despite their necessity for finishing the projects. I believe the reason the tutorials could not properly show me where these functions were because of the differences between versions and myself being a visual learner with most of the tutorials being majorly word-based. In simpler terms, I would occasionally need to look up where a certain function of the program was or how to use it.
Though I do not have much in the ways of other thoughts, I want to take the time to thank you for the class and hope you enjoy the Holidays.
