Blog 10: Semester reflections and the future

When I graduate this May I plan on getting a job as a graphic designer, and I'm sure I will be using plenty of multimedia writing. For example, I will be sending many emails to different clients which is a form of multimedia writing that will help me in the future. It's possible that I will be responsible for keeping a daily blog for the company that I work at also. The skills that I have learned in this class will most likely be used by me daily in the future. If there was one assignment that I had to choose that relates the most to my future as a graphic designer it would have to be the PSA assignment. For the PSA I plan to do a lot of photo editing and some video editing. Throughout college I have learned how to use Photoshop to do those kinds of things. There aren't really any assignments that I wish we would have covered because I think we covered them all. Writing for multimedia is universal throughout all internet writing, so with the skills we've learned we are able to write for any multimedia. My favorite assignment was the printed newsletter assignment because I like to be creative and we were allowed to create a newsletter and be as creative as we want. I have done different layouts for print before, so I was already familliar with the process.
I like everyone's blogs for the simple fact that they are all different. Everyone has their own unique way of interpreting things and it's interesting to see everyone's different views on things.

  1. I agree that it was difficult finding a certain person who's blog stood out to you the most! You're right in the sense that everybody had their own ideas and interpretations of subjects.

  2. I agree with also being a graphic designer. The PSA assignment is pretty useful for us and also learning how to talk with professionals.

  4. I hope your PSA went well. I found it very educational to gain knowledge of how to create and edit videos in this class.

  5. I kind of agree too for the blogging part. I think everyone did a good job and I never knew what to expect from anyone's. There were some funny ones and some serious ones. I really felt like it was hard to pick just one. I'm also graduating in May and I feel like this really helped me out with my future career in Advertising and I like being able to put in my resume that I'm interested in Social Media.

  6. Rob I enjoyed a lot of the same things you did this semester.. Wow I just realized we are done right now. Didn't really hit me until right there.. Anyway, good luck designing stuff and hopefully we can be in touch because I am always looking for graphic design work.
