Week 1(27/08/19): Hearst Mansion
EXERCISE
At the first class,our lecturers Mr Jeffery who is a very funny person asked us to introduce ourself.He is one of the funniest lecturers of my BDCM course and he gave a lot of different feedbacks to different introductions of my classmates.
It's was awful that I am the only one who doesn't use English very well. He started the class with introduce some shortcut key of the iMac,but I am a newbie in iMac so it's quite hard to understand what was he talking about. I only remember that he told us the shortcut key of screen shot is command+3+shift.Even my computer I also don't know how to screenshot LOL.
For the first week's exercises, he taught us how to use photoshop.I remembered that my secondary school teachers taught me how to use it,so I can handle it as fast as I can.
