Frank Castro’s Profile
Game Design
My name is Frank Castro, I am a video game enthusiast who has heavy interests in the topic that has future plans in designing a game and its other aspects. These aspects may include character design, storyboard, concept design, and even video editing for trailers. Although my art is subpar I would like to improve so that the characters I once envisioned while I was younger are brought to life in one way or another. I was in this school 8 years ago for regular graphic design but i heard about the changes and came back, i had to take a remedial class which i aced on return.
Although my talents in this major have been limited in artistic ability i attempt to make up for it with creativity, if not trying my best usually works. My other interests include Anime, playing video games, interacting with new people, streaming, talking in general, league of legends, and eating. My goals are more than passing my classes this semester, it’s to surpass the hollow shell of a human being that i have been for the past years.
My Courses
COMD Communication Design Internship Coordination Site
This site is designed to help you find fieldwork/study situations of approximately eight hours per week at an internship site approved by the Department Internship instructor such as an advertising agency, graphic design firm, corporate design office, publications art department, photography or illustration studio, TV or multimedia production company. Students will be required to keep a learning journal of their internship in the form of a blog using Openlab. A portion of the class will be devoted to presenting and sharing experiences with classmates. Students will learn how to assess their talents, update their resume, and promote themselves and their work through social networks. Students will be required to setup and maintain at least two social media networks such as: Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest. The instructors for this class are there as mentors if you have not yet found an internship before registering for the course. However, the instructors do not find an internship placement for you. It is your responsibility to find a position that fits your personal career path and help you transition to full time employment upon leaving the halls of CityTech. Ideally, you will use this site to find an internship the semester before taking the COMD 4900 class.
Independently, students engage in research, conceptualization, and the development of a comprehensive project spanning multiple media platforms. This project employs design thinking to tackle a modern-day concern.
