I
don’t necessarily consider myself an artist or a creative person. I
don’t paint,
draw, write creatively, use photo shop or illustrator regularly or
make films.
I admire and
appreciate
people who are artists and can make creative work. I feel like my
mind doesn't work in an
artistic
way. I am thoroughly entertained by other people’s creative works
in art, film and television; specifically
film and television. Even though I don't create and produce my own
art I appreciate the works of others so much so that I would love to
work with them in my career. My ultimate career goal is to be a
publicity or development executive at a major television or movie
studio. I have more of a business mind so I would love to use my
knowledge of business and public relations and mix that with my love
for film and television and make a fulfilling career out of it.
Although
I don't consider myself an artist I am 100% open to learning and
absorbing everything that there is to learn about art and film in
Media 160. I know very little about how to shoot a film so I would
love to learn at least the very basics. I figure if I want to work on
the business side of television and film I should have general
knowledge on everything that goes into making a film or show that I
am developing and promoting. Hopefully the skills and knowledge I
garner from Media 160 will give me an upper hand when I set out in my
career.
At
the
end of the semester I plan to post a closing blog entry on what
artistic and filmic skills and knowledge I have gained. Maybe by the
end of the semester I will finally consider myself an artist.
Stay
tuned!
