An eye for design is why I decided to become a Digital Media Design major. DMA is such an intriguing major with so much creativity which is what I enjoy. There are so many things I find interesting but not as much as the development of video games. Most people complete a game and do not bother to look through the credits. Little do they know the credits provide a great deal of information about how the game was developed and by who. There is so much I would like to learn about designing video games like creating certain game engines, using 3d graphics, building a great storyline and so much more. Here is a link about gameplay vs storyline which I find interesting since it shows an everlasting debate in how games should be made. I do enjoy other things as to how I am a fan of anime and other related cartoons. Some of my favorites are D Grey Man, Naruto and Bleach along with marvel. I want to also take advantage of the animation I will be learning because I have always looked forward to learning about things like flash. In fact on of my favorite videos made from flash made by Monty Oum which has been around YouTube for a while now called Dead Fantasy.
Hopefully in 5 years I would like to be designing video games and create really good games for the world of gamers to enjoy.
Blog#2: "Creative Me"
"Blog#1: Your In The Big Time Now"
So now things are different in my life even though I have some college experience already. See even if i transfered from another college or straight out of high school to me this is still a very new experience and to me personally, a second chance. In my last school i did a lot of socializing which sometimes it can be good but not to the point where you neglect your studies. I hope to succeed here in TCI College and make so much more of myself. There are many things that I plan on changing to help achieve that goal of success such as how to manage my time, when and how to study, complete assignments on time and look for ways to improve my grades. So far from what I have seen TCI has a great amount of help within the staff who are willing to help at any moment. For an example on of the representatives in the main building has been helping me with all the steps to have my classes enrolled, financial aid directions, scheduling classes all which have been helpful to get me where I am today. So far somethings I have changed outside of school are practicing my software more, limited my socializing, and as a DMA student viewing the world somewhat differently. I practice a great deal of the Creative Suite from Adobe but mostly Photoshop. I learned my lesson from my last college so I like to budget my time like I budget money. I do enjoy spending time with friends and significant other but lets face it, there not going to help me pass my classes as great as they are. Now as a DMA student I pretty much now touched more of my artistic side like the one I used to choreograph a dance(yes I am a dancer but that is way off topic). I tend to look at billboards and signs as I walk around Times Square and find myself admiring the designs I see, Like the image below:
