When my first Interactive Digital Design class at Quinnipiac University began in 2008, I opened Photoshop for the first time. I was thrilled to have recently purchased the Adobe Creative Suite 3 and determined to create and discover. Since then, I have learned over eight different programs throughout the span of three versions of the Creative Suite. Now at 5.5, I still find myself excited to delve deeper as well as teach myself new programs.
Throughout my college career, my design professors have always pushed the importance of research and self-teaching. There will always be new versions of software to be unveiled and new challenges that will be faced.
My new challenge: Wordpress. Although I have experience with Dreamweaver, I want to try a different route for my portfolio website. I have one girl to thank for assisting me in this new course. Lynda. Since I opened Photoshop for the first time, Lynda has always been there to guide me along the way. Whether it comes to After Effects or how to create your own version of Avatar in Photoshop, Lynda’s tutorials are both endless and unlimited. Rather than playing around on my computer to try and learn the program, I can watch specified tutorials that share and illustrate the ins and outs of software.
Technology is constantly changing. Luckily, there are various amounts of resources so we as designers can stay ahead.
