Canvas Tutorials

1.) https://www.html5canvastutorials.com

What I really liked about this website was the amount of tutorials it featured. It had everything you would need to know, and all of the information is organized. It has links to each main element such as text, line, and shape. Under each of these main headings there are links to show you had to do specific things with each element.

2.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EO6OkltgudE

This tutorial was interesting because the creator found ways to keep the audience engaged. He put music in the background and added different colors that made the video more appealing. The tutorial started with the basics first and showed each step through screen recording. This makes following the tutorial a lot easier for the audience.

3.) https://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_canvas.asp

This website featured many different tutorials. I found these helpful because they showed an example followed by a code that would be used to make that specific element. The site also has a "try it yourself" link that allows you to practice using and manipulating the code.

First Class

 My name is Bailey Nolting, and I'm from a small town in Illinois. I am a communications major with a minor in public relations. Currently, I work part-time as a nanny as well as a PR intern at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay. I have always been interested in digital media and learning how to use the different softwares. When I first came to class, I was nervous because I have heard the class is difficult. I am excited though to learn and understand how to properly use the software.

I think the class will help me to be better prepared for continuing my education and the work force. A lot of jobs in my field require that you are familiar with Adobe Cloud, so I believe it will be very helpful to take this class. I have heard that the class can be hard if you are unfamiliar with the software. I only have a little experience using the software, so I have a lot to learn. Technology can be hard to work with when you are new to something, but I am hoping I can catch on quickly. By the end of this class, I expect to be familiar with Adobe Cloud and able to create different media with the software.
