Welcome! I'm Alexa and this blog will feature my inner thoughts, insight into my creations, and overall experiences throughout my time in Multimedia Authoring. I am really excited to better my multimedia and graphic design skills throughout the semester.
While I do have a little bit of experience using various Adobe Creative Cloud programs, I definitely need to sharpen my skills in order to be able to use them professionally. As a graduating News and Media Studies major and Film, TV, and Digital Media minor, the skills this class promises could not come at a better time. By the end of the semester, I hope to not only be confident in my multimedia literacy, but to have a strong portfolio that I can present to potential employers in the future.
During the first class, we were asked to google "abstract." Even though I saw a lot of really cool images that intrigued me, it took me a while to settle on an image that I really felt spoke to me. Throughout that process, I learned that while I am impressed with a lot of creative images that I see, an image needs to have an element of uniqueness or have a deeper meaning in order for me to really connect to it. With that being said, I selected an abstract portrait that I not only felt had a strong visual draw, but an emotional one as well.
