Alexa Chipman: loyal_irulan@yahoo.com, 707-769-9497 Employment Objective: I am currently in the process of a BFA in Digital arts with a major in Web Design; I will probably work in the field of Web Graphics although I also have a strong emphasis on fine arts. Skills: HTML, PHP, Adobe Photoshop Certified, Adobe Illustrator, Macr. Flash, Adobe Premiere, Colour Theory, Design. Courses: I have taken all the photoshop classes here, pretty much all the web related classes, video production, photography, drawing, figure drawing, colour and design classes, extensive painting classes, and many others. Project Role: I was the Project Manager and my role was basically to hold everyone together, work with the client, and keep the project on schedule. What I learned from the project: This class above all else taught me how to juggle many projects at once. Unlike normal school environments this class required seven days a week participation much more like a real job. I also learned how important organizing information can be especially with the amount required for this project. I thought I was an organized person before taking it but it taught me that I needed to pay even more attention to detail -- I believe that is a skill that will come in very handy later in my life.
Andrew Ferris: NeoJadeite@aol.com, (707) 829-5780 Employment Objective: My goal is to take part in a webfirm. I have the skills to be adaptable and flexible to different roles within the a web-creation organization. Skills: I have skill with webdesign as well as the creation of websites themselves. I can create entire sites in Dreamweaver that include everything from CSS to simple ASP functions.

I have completed the advance courses for both Photoshop and Dreamweaver, I have also taken a course to learn Macromedia Flash.

Working on a team is different than working alone simply because when you work on a team with something as open to creativity as webdesign one cannot help but look back and feel that you would have done certain things differently. There is no one right way to approach anything, you simply have to trust your peers.
