I have really enjoyed taking COM 210 and creating this blog. My favorite project during the semester was the final video project because I’ve always wanted to learn how to create videos in a professional program like Adobe Premiere and be able to do special effects and transitions like we were taught to do. Also, this was my favorite because I had a lot of fun filming the videos at one of my favorite events that my sorority puts on. I was proud that I could capture and share with others about this event that is so fun and means a lot to me and others. I learned how to work with Premiere in the tutorials and discovered tools and gained skills in Premiere. I also had a lot of fun making the tutorials. I also enjoyed using those tools in my final video project on my own. I enjoyed all the programs we worked with, but Adobe Premiere was my favorite because there was so much to do with the program to make my project creative and interesting. The skills I learned in this course are how to manage my time well, organize my materials on a computer well, and how to use and create projects with Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Audition, and Premiere. I feel as if I can use all these skills and programs in the future at a potential job or in my own free time. I will be taking more COM classes that most likely will have more projects and presentations where I can use these programs effectively. The skills like how to manage my time well and organization will help with any potential career I may have in the future. I do not know of any skills that I wish I had learned but did not learn in this course. I found the adobe website and YouTube were helpful resources to use in the course because they would have addition tutorial videos available if I needed more help or wanted to learn more tools in a program. Thank you so much for following this blog throughout this semester. I had so much fun learning and creating the projects that I did, and I hope to continue to practice and strengthen my skills in Adobe programs to create more media projects.
