As the hours are not yet met by coming to the conclusion that I will not be able 2 complete the hours in time by the end of the semester. I had various health issues in regards to my left wrist. This was a painful learning experience due to the fact I had to do things with my right hand all while being left handed. On the positive side, I have been becoming hey better motion designer by having to focus more on other classes that includes various motion techniques learning them, and also applying that to the Internship  itself.

Dark Night Mode is an app that adds an eye saving dark mode to your internet websites. I use this on every site including open lab. the harmful blue light the white background omits to your eyes will cause fatigue for some people. Dry eyes headaches and even mood swings can be a cause of the blue light omitted from your screen.

Text to speech that brings productivity

Text to speech that brings productivity is a chrome store app that converts files, blog posts & more to speech that can be used on any device. I use this when I am multi tasking between doing animation work and listening to an article assigned for class. therefore my reading assignment turns into a podcast!

I chose this photo because it shows that nothing has been changed since the 1900s. Sad but true. Personally, I don’t think the relationship between bad cops and people will ever change. Where there is hate there is violence. This photo could have been taken in the riots of 2020, and many people wouldn’t have noticed. Sad but very true.

This gave us a timeframe and appreciation of when this was taken. Now all we have to do is reach in our pocket and take a simple selfie. This captured emotion and effort in taking a self portrait. Now it is much easier to do. We also now have the use of depth of field and color, along with photoshop and color correction software.

Life was very different and simplified back then according to what we see in Park’s photos. Gender was a factor in determining who you will be and what you will do. Now times have changed where the option was in your hands as long as your parental duties did not change.

I attended the post-webinar featuring Chairwoman Adele Newton- Watch ‘Women of Influence – Pioneers and Change Makers’ at SIGGRAPH. I liked the fact that these had working individuals have many years of experience and their own specialties. Mentors in their careers is a great way of seeing who inspired who to do what. Would you have done anything different in your career? most people would say what they wanted to do as a kid and I wanted to be a racecar driver. Not knowing lots of money is involved and being in my personal circumstance being young and broke, would be financially irresponsible. Marie Paul always wanted to be involved in graphics. She wanted it when she was younger, however, she wasn’t confident she would succeed. Overall this event was something to look at in different people’s shoes. Older women who stuck to their passion and had their own challenges in pursuing their passion.

Hosted by Siobhan Dorks, president of the advertising production club of NYC. I learned that LinkedIn is a tool that needs more attention than we might think in order to optimize exactly what we want from it. In the video, Nigel Cliffe is an experienced multi channel marketer. Deborah Corn is the founder of peacock. Nigel is shocked at how many people are not updating their LinkedIn profile, and I’m also one of those people. How can we make our own personal brand more effective? We are a product of the people we are surrounded with on LinkedIn, this rang true to me because I am a student surrounded by other students. The difference from this event compared to the other two i attended is this is more diving deeper into using the LinkedIn tools such as messaging other people who you would like to work with, and even a portfolio view can make a connection happen where you can be a potential candidate.

I attended the Moving Pixels event meeting with professor Tiffany Jackman. We saw what amazing work she has accomplished and it really inspired me to look even more into advertising. topics covered were types of ads, methods and insight on a daily look over the course of the projects. there was a short window of q and a I linked with tiffany on Linkedin. there wasn’t a follow-up email after the event, it was mostly asking a question through linked in if you had a question. my take on this was insightful and exiting to be a creative!

I chose to watch the webinar in regards to employment issues during a pandemic by AIGA. Shel Perkins and Wendy Stryker were featured in the webinar. I learned that almost everyone qualifies for unemployment, but the benefits are different. My take on the event was relevant to the fact that I lost my job at Century 21 department stores due to COVID-19. It was a topic of personal relevance, and it was a relatable event to millions of people who were and possibly still are unemployed.
