Part II Final
1. After paying close attention to the details in movies, such as how the camera is angled to give the audience a different perspective, the different aspects of reflexivity and just being able to interpret certain details differently allows me to look at movies in a different way than any person who hasn’t taken the class. Last night I watched Atonement which was amazing and I kept analyzing the movie and thought in a different way than I normally would have. The cinematogrophy was very different than any other movie I’ve ever seen and I just kept thinking about our class.
2.While doing my final, I was able to realize the different photographs and the differences between them. Throughout class we discussed the meaning behind different photos, learned how to interpret them in other ways that you normally wouldn’t and figured out the truth behind them; if they were original, what characteristics they had such as photographic truth, if they were postmodernism, among other things. Now I have the ability and knowledge to seperate certain images that I may see somewhere, even in a magazine I may be reading.
3.Lastly, I enjoyed being able to work on the computers. We were able to create our ideal dorm rooms and some people went further. Being able to learn how all of those programs work is really beneficial to all of us because as technology advances its important to understand how they work. Chances are, we’ll be working with them in our future jobs. It’s not only just an assignment either. I found it fun and enjoyable, at least when I understood how to do different tasks. All in all, it was an experience working with the programs to create our haikus and ideal rooms.
