Reflections

▼ Experience
Starting on my degree journey at Taylor's, this class allowed me to learn about all the tools and techniques of using Adobe Photoshop to achieve photorealistic effects. I would like to mention that this module covers whole new information for me and is one of the design fields that prove to be essential in visual graphics in current society. I'm glad that I met a kind and helpful lecturer with a professional mindset, Mr Martin who acts as a guiding light on my endless voyage, providing insights and filling me with passion towards this class. The whole documentation using Blog as instructed by Mr Martin assisted me in visualizing the improvements I made over the 3 months and gave me the chance to look back on all the stuff I've learned during this long semester.


▼ Observations
I have made a lot of observations, whether searching for ideas and references on the Internet or receiving feedback from my lecturer on my assignments. These observations helped me in broadening my perspective and allowing me to have self-improvement. Besides, I got to have a detailed look at the other peers' creative works during class every Friday, enjoying their various perspectives on the same topics.


▼ Findings 
Throughout this first semester that started my 3-year university journey, I found the photoshopping skills that I've retained to be entertaining and allow me to create surrealist images with our creativity as limits. I'm looking forward to the more technical knowledge I'm able to discover in the following years.
