In about a week from now I start graduate school . . . again . . . sort of. So, if you're my friend and you thought I was still in school it means we haven't talked in a really long time. If you didn't even know I was in school for part of last year it means we haven't talked in a really, really long time. My apologies. Seriously. When things in my life aren't going the way I think they should I tend to shut people out and hide in my jackie cave until I can get things figured out. I have some issues. We can discuss those at some later date if you're actually interested.
So starting March 28th I'll be a student in the Motion Media Design program at SCAD. (here's where I hope no one who is reading this is stalking me, since I've just told you where I'm going to be spending the majority of my time for the next year. If you are stalking me . . . thanks . . . I'm a little flattered.)
And this is what I will be studying:
Motion graphics are graphics that use video and/or animation technology to create the illusion of motion or a transforming appearance
That's the short version of what I'll be doing, which really I should memorize, because people keep asking me what I'm going into and I've realized I'm fairly inept at explaining it to them. Darn my inability to communicate in a way that others besides me can understand! So, If you feel like reading more about it you may go here or here.
So I'm excited, and nervous, and also slightly in denial of the fact that I'm going to be back in school. Also, if again you don't hear from me for a long time it hopefully won't be because I'm having some sort of existential crisis but merely stuck in front of a computer screen creating something awesome.

I'm really happy for you, friend. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I, too, have a hard time explaining what it is I'm studying. Unless you go to law school or medical school, I think it's difficult to explain degree programs . . .
But kudos to you for doing something you want to do, even though it will be a lot of hard work. Let's send each other quick IMs late at night, when we're both burning the midnight oil. :)
