    Hi my name is Caroline Nordheim,  I am a freshman at the University of Tampa currently taking a digital media class. Judging by the first class will be very interesting to take since it is a film class and I am a journalism major. However I knew this when I added it to my schedule so this did not surprise me. I am honestly very excited for the topics that will be covered in this class and to start using Adobe platforms and other software.     I love photography, so I used platforms such as photoshop in high school so learning new software is something I look forward too. I take a lot of action photography since I competitively swim but I love travel photography and I hope I can work in that field one day.  I Also enjoy writing, which is why I chose journalism because I felt like it was a great way to combine to things I enjoy to do and make it my job.    I have been swimming since I was really young and I also played waterpolo in high school. Swimming definitely play a role into why I chose Tampa but I would say this school overall check a lot of boxes for me in what I was looking for when choosing my college. I originally wanted to go out of state, since I am from Florida, But Tampa seemed far enough from Boca raton to allowed to not feel like I am still living at home.

Final Portfolio

Final Portfolio Artist statement  To end the semester, my FMX 210 class submitted a final portfolio. After putting this together I like the consistency my work has throughout all of my projects really stood out. My art maintained a minimalistic abstract style, which was my goal when creating it. I was also able to use symbolism in each of my pieces rather that be represented through a wave, the sun, colors, or style choice all of it had meaning when I was making my pieces. That is why when making my art, I wanted it to hold meaning to me so when I put my portfolio together, I could see the connection everything had to each other. One of my favorite parts of making my art work was picking the colors especially when we made our logos. I love the symbolism certain colors have and when making my art work colorful, keeping the a conscious effort to pick colors that emphasize the message I am trying to have my work send really allows me to appreciate what I make more.  In FMX 210, t...

  The Connection FMX 210- Digital Media Caroline Nordheim The internet and the World Wide Web are something humans have access to everyday and normally don’t question where it comes from or if there is even a difference. In reality there is a surprising difference between these two platforms and came around during two different time periods. However although different these websites work together since the World Wide Web was able to come into reality from the internet being created  The Internet was created by Bob Kahn and Vint Cerf in the 1950s. According to britannica.com , the internet is defined as “a system architecture that has revolutionized communications and methods of commerce by allowing various computer networks around the world to interconnect.” The internet came around during what is known as The Cold War, when tensions were high between North America and the Soviet Union.
