I know there are so many artful conceptions one can accomplish with photoshop. I’ve seen work by my colleagues and I say to myself “I wish I could do that.” However, I have the inner feeling “PR Pubs” will not only match their skills but supersede them as well. In fact, I am predicting that my drawing skills will increase enormously this semester since my process in designing images usually includes drawing it out and let my hand do the talking for me.

I’ve heard that I will be learning about Adobe products all within their creative suite set. Surprisingly, I don’t know how in-depth we are going to practice with them and what all of the creative suite set entails. Depending on how well I work with Adobe, I might buy the entire package.
Adobe- The Motherlode
The only product I heard of is Photoshop, not all of these other products such as Illustrator, InDesign, and Experience Design. To be honest, I am very anxious to be learning about everything. Everything sounds confusing but I am hopeful after hearing Adam Croom‘s explanation on semester flow really sums up my feeling as of now. Nevertheless, I am excited and hopeful for this upcoming semester.
