In fall 2016, I took a course 76-481: Introduction of Multimedia Design, taught by Professor Brian Staszel, at the Carnegie Mellon University. This course is project based and also heavy on class discussion and critiques. In this course, I had the opportunity to develop the ability to analyze multimedia and create multimedia projects that merge text, audio, animation, and video. I also learned the essentials of various multimedia software, such as Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe Photoshop. I kept a reflection blog to document my progress of each project.
