Guest Speaker at the University of Miami - School of Communications
Today, I had the privilege of speaking as a guest speaker for an Actionscript course at the University of Miami - School of Communications.
The session was not so much into technical stuff. It was more about an overview of the capabilities of Flash/Flash Lite/Flex, what it takes to get into the industry, what life is like working in the industry, and how the process work from concepting/ideas to production and launching.
Initially I was kind of concerned that I won’t have enough materials to talk about for 1.5 hours, but I felt that it ended up great. I also pulled up some of the projects that we have done just to show them the kind of work we are doing, and I think that everyone was really liking it, asking lots of questions like how we built it and stuff.
I also got a tour of the whole facility and learning new stuff along the way. They showed me how they do radio broadcasting, tv broadcasting and some other stuff, which I have never done before.
Like most people do, I ended up the session by giving out business cards, hoping to get some qualified people on board.
Overall, I had a great time and the trip was a blast. I am so glad that they invited me over. I would think that it won’t be the last time, but a beginning of more.
