First Lab of the Semester!

I know this sounds completely cheesy, but working on the first lab today really got me excited for this class. I know sometimes it is necessary to take a class where most of what you learn is why something works or why something is necessary in the real world. But sometimes I just want to learn HOW to do something, for example how to upload videos and cut clips like we did today in class. I feel like all the tools we will be learning in this class will all be useful and pratical at some point in the future since everything in our society today seems to be completely technology and multimedia oriented.

Today wasn't full of lecture from the teacher and silence from the students like most of the classes I have taken here at Lehigh. It was a highly interactive experience where we all got to use the actual camera and take video on day 2 of class. I am really excited that we jumped right into working instead of just talking about it. I already know how to download a clip, where to find it, and how to post it on youtube. Again, I know this sounds cheesy but I think a lot of us feel the same and I can't wait to see what we will be learning next.
