About me

Adjunct teacher at Fullerton College in the Digital Arts Dept. Teaching a variety of subjects each semester. Rotating within the two class limit of Digital Imaging (Photography basics and imaging editing), Motion Graphics and animation effects with After Effects, Video Editing with Premiere, 3D Texturing with Photoshop, Keyshot and Substance using Maya. The list keeps growing happily.

During the past 20 years I was a professional digital artist working in film and TV using software for a variety of VFX tasks. I had worked at many studios in LA, Washington and lastly in Canada.

I'm always learning and pass that on to the students. The skills and the pipeline. I still shoot a lot of photography. Film and digital. Most recently have added the drone (flying camera) to my tool set with hopes to get a license thru the FAA so I can shoot commercial.

That's pretty much me in a nutshell.

Activity

Again very interesting information and makes me rethink my class for such situations. How best to go about it when the course is a visual class. Great creative thinking required to accommodate students with disabilites.

 

This is certainly a challenging situation for students and instructors. More so online. Very interesting topic.

 

I agree with Courtland, multiple evaluations of course are very helpful

 

In my classes we always review each student's work for feedback from other students and myself. Everyone learns even more and are usually inspired to do better.

 

All good material. I'm reviewing this section again.

 

I agree with having a good clear direction in the syllabus to help the students get inspired by the course goals and what they can achive.

I think "scaffolding" can be very helpful to other students who haven't that much experience with topic. Each student's prior experience on topic helps other learn more.

 

What I learned was our framework and module plans are within our syllabus. Prety much along the lines of this first lecture. It is laid out per day or week and helps the student keep on track with their goals and keeping up with class. I agree with the length of time to show a video clip. So I always have that longer resource available in our class Google drive for their reference.
