Animation Reflection

Valuable Takeaway From Animation Guarantees

Technology | 

I was slowly taught how to use my technology and programs This will follow me through the rest of my career Yes, Learning how to use this in my best way possible took me a long time with many many mistakes.

Collaboration |  

During the team projects or helping others around me. Person skills are something you will need for the rest of your life. no, I've been a people person all my life.

Communication |  

i didn't learn how to speak or communicate, I've done it since i could talk. communication will follow me through all of life. and its something i will need til the day i die. i never faced a challenge in communicating with others.

Project Management |  

I learned how to manage my projects using folders to hold each project or other folders to separate raw files from finished project, or based off of the application i was using. This is important because you will always need good management no matter what job or career you take. i never faced a challenge in managing my projects, I've always been a very organized person.

Leadership | 

i didn't have to learn anything about leadership, I've always been a good leader and naturally take lead. leadership makes a better person because leading isn't very easy, it takes a strong person to lead an entire crew or team. i never faced a challenge with leadership however, I've always been a leader in almost everything i do.

My Strengths or Weaknesses

I have improved mainly in my technology skills, i came into this class knowing almost nothing about molding or animation itself. However i still have a lot of places to better myself on my work ethic and work skills. With everything I've learned I'm going to take it into the real world for my future careers. How ever i wouldn't change anything about what I'm going to take into the world. 

The Year Overlook

My year has been extremely fun have enjoyed it all throughly. My relationships have been interesting that i have made, i have gotten many friends and created amazing bonds with my teachers. Roughly a week per project was needed for completion.

Semester Reflection

What Have I Done In Class?

11x17 poster

the 11x17 poster was okay, i didn't enjoy having to lookup everything on bauhaus but it was a interesting poster and history behind him and the school. i didn't get any feedback or change anything , i thought this was okay.

Typography 5x5

The typography 5x5 was 4 quote posters that i very throughly enjoyed. However i felt like my fellow students didn't use comment sense when explaining tips to me when giving me constructive criticism. I used color to separate words that weren't together, or even facing the wrong way. they still couldn't see that. i didn't change anything. i loved this project to death. 

Combination Mark Logo
