Adobe Downloads

Here is the website I mentioned that has the free trial downloads and beta versions of new Adobe software for you to try out. Check the downloads button along the top menu. I reccomend Visual Communicator and media player but there is plenty of cool stuff to try out. Have fun!

Media Art Honor Society

The first meeting of the Media Art Honor Society is this week. We'll be discussing the events we'll be participating in this year and some of the Honor Society information.

Filmmaking Quarter Assignment

Hey Film, Our first quarter assignment is a collaboration which reflects on the community, the school, and the issues (positive and negative) that people deal with here. The idea is to share this film with other communities and exchange final projects so that we can learn about ourselves as well as other communities.
