Reflecting Writing Assignments:

1. Getting Started: In the beginning, I knew off the back the multi-media project was going to be a challenge for me since I was sick and missed a lot of class time. But after going to office hours and speaking to the professor on what I needed to do to catch up had helped me a lot.
Some of the things that I expected with this project was to grow a better knowledge of multi-media because that was my main focus for this semester. I wanted to learn how to make a webpage, blog, do audio, video and get familiar with the Adobe family (Photoshop, Dreamweaver, InDesign).
I feel that accomplishing these expectations will help me a lot especially since this is a field that I want to go onto when I finish school. Working with the online media is always something that I’ve wanted to do and be a part of but I didn’t know too much about it. I know by taking one class that I wont make me a genius at webpage designing but it will get me started. It will help get an idea that I can run with, practice and use it in other classes to help me grow a better understanding of it and become more knowledgable.
This project is a lot different from doing the in-class lab projects because I’m doing it at 9 in the morning where I am half awake and would rather be in bed than reading blogs. Also, I’m the kind of person that is not very well on being creative with doing things on the spot. I’m more of a spure of the moment person and like to do projects similar to what we do in class on my own time. Plus, I’m easily distracted so I do better on things when I’m alone and its just me, my music, and the computer. Which is another reason why I decided to work on this project alone instead of teaming up. I like to do things on my own pace, and I feel that I can for sure get things done if I work on projects like this by myself.
