I must admit, that I really had to force myself into signing up for this course. Flash and Dreamweaver have defeated me in the past, leaving me wading water in a pond made up of my own tears of frustration. Not quite, but still it's pretty much a hate-hate relationship.
However, in these fast times it is important to diversify one's skills, especially on the electronic front. When it was time to register for fall classes I put aside the tempting option of losing myself in the satisfaction of making a perfectly crafted book in Bruce's Book Concrete and instead dove into the murky waters of ART 3710: New Media.
We have officially passed the halfway mark for the semester and I am glad to report that I am still alive, and not so scared anymore! Though not they are not quite as intuitive as the Big Three CS programs, I no longer dread opening up Dreamweaver and Flash.
Which brings me to the next item on the agenda for New Media: Create a one minute Flash Animation.
I am choosing to do an animation on what my cat, Looshkin, does when I am not around. Currently, she is laying across my forearm as I type. Silly girl. I can only imagine the antics she gets into when I am at school.
