Filmp 150 feedback
I liked the lab or section if you will. I feel like it was really hands on and we got to do a lot far as showcasing our talents, and ideas. The lecture on the other hand was not that great to me. I feel like I didn't learn much. Every lecture period the instructors spent a lot of time uploading videos and links. That took away our class time. Actually that's how the majority of most classes were spent. Also the slides would go by really fast, which is not a problem because I knew they were on blackboard. The problem with that is the links on blackboard were damaged, so I couldnt get notes from the lecture. That also made it hard to study for test. If those things were changed this would be an awesome class.
Museum of Moving Images
I took a trip to the museum of moving images and it was great. I like to visit museums but this one was one of the best. I think it was great because it was a musuem that was full of things that I want to learn for my career. I also read about some very interesting information while I was there like Samuel B. Morse created the telegraph in 1837. This was one of the first means of communications. I also saw information about the Eastman Kodak Company, which was founded in my home town of Rochester, Ny. I've even been to George Eastman's house. Seeing that was amazing to me.

Artist Statement
Whitney Morgan
I am a journalist. I like shooting videos, and writing. I look at what’s going on in the world and I would like to put my own spin on it. I want to tell stories in a different way. I want to be serious about how I deliver a story when I need to, but I also want to bring a personal feeling to it. I want the people that are watching me to feel like were friends. I don’t want people to feel like they’re watching me on TV in their living rooms. I want them to get the feeling that I’m in their living rooms. I want to entertain people and make them think, smile, and inspire them. That’s what motivates my art. I love sharing what I do with people. I would like the world to see what I do.
Journalism is a very exciting field and there’s so many different aspects to it. That’s what I love the most about it. I can do some much in this field, and help out millions of people. I can write, produce, deliver stories and even have my own show. I enjoy telling people what’s going on, and informing them about various things. I love telling stories and writing. I love sharing my thoughts and finding out what others are thinking.
