"When I first started this class I did not know what to expect, I knew that there was going to some aspects in photography and that's about it, but I did not know how much more that I was going to learn. I have learned much more than I could have ever hoped to learn in this class, not only have I learned how to properly use a camera but I have also learned how to edit those photos or videos in Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, or Final Cut Pro X. I have learned a lot to do with producing TV shows as well, I can now operate a switcher, video cameras, and I know how to set the lighting on the set for The Show. We have done almost everything involved in producing a show from writing a script to filming commercials. If you are wanting to go into any field that has anything to do with visual communications I would recommend this class, I am not even wanting to go into this field but I have learned enough that if I ever wanted to switch professions I could probably get a job in the visual communications field."

"Growing up, I was always motivated by the arts in order to improve myself in all aspects of life ranging from a student, a daughter, a sibling, and a friend. Although I have an undying appreciation for Huron County, living the creative life was kind of hard as I was limited to opportunities in order to grow into an artist. When I heard that this class was going to be offered at the Tech Center at the beginning of my senior year, I was beyond ecstatic. Finally, I thought, finally I can shine where I'm supposed to. I have learned ample amounts of videography, photography, and graphic design in my seven months at the Tech Center. The atmosphere that Mr. Turner has created is welcoming and kind, and I never have to question whether or not I'm going to be challenged any day. There's always something to do and somewhere to grow. This class has not only shaped me as an artist and photographer, but it has taught me patience, teamwork, and time management (deadlines are a vital aspect of this class). I can honestly say that this class has changed the course of my life, and I will continue to pursue a degree in the world of Visual Communications at Ferris State University."
