First Blog

What are your thoughts about taking the class History Through Film?
- When I first saw this class for an option for me to take, I wanted to be apart of it. I totally had a different thought about the class right away. I thought it was it was going to show history though pictures and film, but I like the way the class is set up way better. I've always really liked talking about movies and film, because Dom I get into too much arguments about this stuff. Plus, being able to watch movies is a big bonus.

What do you hope to get out of this class and what strength do you bring to the class that will help us all progress forward as we learn?
- I hope to get a better education about the history of film. I mean I watch a lot of movies and I've kind of paid attention to the effects and animations, but I want to get a better understanding on them. My strength would be that I have seen a lot of movies, and I've seen how the effects and animations have grown over the past 30 years. Even though I wasn't alive, I've been able to see what has happened and I think I can help people have a better understanding of that.
