On the flip side, I was able to use our DMB resources to try out digital art & drawing tablets for the first time, which ultimately led to me getting my own & further practicing in Clip Studio Paint<\/a> I’ve also started working on a potential new service for the DMB that allows Wooster students to test out our drawing tablets, just as I did. I’ll be graduating, so I won’t get to continue this project myself, but keep an eye out for it sometime next semester! <\/p>\n\n\n\n Graphic design is another field that I’ve always been interested in and I got tons of practice with it here! Learning Canva was one of my first goals after getting the job. Ever since then I’ve been designing tons of posters & promotional materials for my workshops, DMB signage, DMB services, and more. I’ve been very pleased with many of my designs. And since Canva & graphic design are versatile skills, they’ve been very applicable to my academic work! <\/p>\n\n\n\n I’ve also discovered how much I enjoy designing & teaching workshops. My most recent one \u2013 Game Development for Beginners<\/a> \u2013 was one of my best! I led a group of students through developing a simple dodging-game in Unity. Everyone had a fun time playing with the 3D animal models I included & learned a lot because I was able to make the content relatively easy to understand (within an hour). However, this workshop was also the most intensive to design out of any I taught before. I had to come up with a game that would be simple to implement while still covering a breadth of topics, figure out how to explain Unity in an understandable way, & do many trial-runs to make sure the workshop was easy for beginners. It was well worth it in the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lastly, I’ve made lots of good friends during my time here, including not only my fellow STAs but my wonderful bosses as well \ud83d\ude42 It’s been fun to get to know people & watch each other grow in a professional sense as well as in a personal sense! I’m glad I made the decision to apply back then! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s hard to believe I’ve been working at the Digital Media Bar for 2\u00bd years, ever since I was a sophomore!
