Hayley's Graphics Wrap Up

Taking graphics this past semester has been completely enjoyable and extremely beneficial to me. Before this semester started, I was a bit nervous to start this class because my friends who took it previously had been living in the labs, and constantly doing work for it, which made me a little bit anxious. I have always enjoyed creating logos, designs, and playing on computer programs like Illustrator, I took Ad design in high school and a summer class at the Fashion Institute of Technology to learn how to do magazine layouts and computer design, so I knew I would enjoy graphics. I loved being able to learn more about these programs, and I know in my future in the communications industry I will definitely use things I learned from graphics. This class has given me more tips and tricks that I will take with me as I progress through the rest of my college career, and after. I would like to take more graphics classes in Newhouse, as well as learn more about the programs and continue making things on the computer. Although this class did cause me stress, the hard work was worth it and truly has shown me a new side of communications and design I never thought I could enjoy so much. I am thankful for the late nights, lectures, and office hours for providing me with knowledge and experience I would have not had the opportunity to learn anywhere else.
