Opportunities in the CLT!

Prior to our field trip to CLT, I had only walked by the room. I had heard on my Trinity tour and read about the school’s incredible equipment available to students interested in editing video, recording music, or using professional grade broadcasting equipment, but had never learned either where this equipment was located nor how to access it as a student. I learned on our visit about the different opportunities available to all students who visit the CLT, including programs like GarageBand, video editing software, and a recording studio. I have really enjoyed learning about Photoshop thus far, and I was excited to learn that there is a classroom on campus dedicated to these kinds of programs. I plan to visit the CLT in the future as we delve further into the Photoshop program and continue with interesting photography projects. It will be interesting to compare the program we use in class—Photoshop Elements—to the full Photoshop program, and to evaluate the different aspects of each. This will be especially useful should I decide to purchase a Photoshop program in the future. Once I become comfortable with Photoshop, I hope to work with my own photos using the tools available to me in the CLT, even beyond this class
I hope to take some classes based on media and communication while here at Trinity. Video and sound recording are important aspects of such fields. It is extremely useful that Trinity provides the equipment in the CLT for students studying different forms of media. I think that I would use the programs we learned about on our visit on projects for such classes, and I think I will be glad to have learned about the opportunities at the CLT because I will have the knowledge and ability to use them!
