My Multimedia Experiences

In middle school, I went to a charter school that focused on alternative arts. I took up film and instantly fell in love with it. Our teacher taught us how to use final cut and it has been a love of mine ever since. I continued doing film in high school. Once I graduated, however, I stopped doing film. I took a semester of photography as my fine arts class at UNM. I learned the basics of photoshop, but I can't say I'm overly comfortable with it. For my own personal uses I use online photo editors such as picnik and fotoflexer. I just find them both to be easier, more user friendly and still achieve the same results. I don't have much experience editing audio in any software other than final cut, but I did learn by watching the audacity group. As far as social media goes, I'm pretty good at it, just like most of my peers are. Having grown up in the age of technology has greatly helped me and given me an advantage I think.
