First Class | 8.31.17

This class is a requirement for my major, however, I am excited for it. While after the first class, I felt a little intimidated, I think it will be pretty fun and really engaging. I really feel like this class is going to challenge me in my area and other areas, which is always good. Instead of it being a normal lecture class, I like how we're doing projects that are more unique, even though they put me out of my comfort zone. 

My major is Digital Arts and my minor is Graphic Design. I am a junior, so I am just now starting to really get into all of my specific major/minor classes! My favorite part of it is animation and that's the area I really hope to get into more for my career. I have two on campus jobs, I am a student mentor for a Pathways to Honors class and a graphic designer for Live Well UT. I'm apart of about 4 campus organizations: Live Well UT being one, Alpha Chi Omega, Success Scholars Program, and the Honors Program. I have a very busy schedule, but I like keeping it that way!

I expect this class to be really challenging after the first class, but I am excited and think it will be fun. I am really excited for the Broadway and Animation portions of the class. I've been to a few shows, so it'll be great to learn about them in a new way. As I said before, animation is the area I really want to focus on with my major so learning more and more about it in all different kinds of aspects will be good for me. I expect this class to help me and teach me new things about art and things that I never really thought about before.
