Introduction

Well I guess I should start off an introduction on this blog space about myself. I’m Aaron and I’m 26 years old, I’ve gone back to complete a four year course in Creative Digital Media because I’ve such an interest in media and gaming, this course suits just perfect! The course modules include Website design, digital video techniques, multimedia development and visual design fundamentals for our year two. 

Last year for 1st year we had modules including photography, photoshop and storytelling which were some of my favourite modules to do. I’ve included some of my work done last year that I’m fairly proud about. For photography in last year’s module I loved working with photoshop, editing a shot for our product shot task. Many other elements were used like a torch, water and reflective film and editing to adjust the lighting.

It was challenging but fun to work on. Photography links into our photoshop module where tasks of image manipulation with an end project that was also challenging but rewarding when completed. With a previous diploma In culinary my career goals have jumped from food to media. 

The cooking is still a part time passion as during the lockdown I’ve grown to expand my knowledge in the kitchen with new meals to cook-up. As well as gaming and checking out reviews of the latest tech especially on games consoles as I’ve recently accomplished building my gaming set up including my latest PS5 and Xbox series X which are great for Netflix, as a Netflix enthusiast I like to keep up to date with the latest shows and movie releases as well as Disney Plus.

Apart from staying in and binging shows and games, I do often face the great outdoors! By doing the odd bit of cycling and a puck(hurling) about in my local fields especially during the lockdown seeing some of the outside world and explore more of your area can be an adventure in itself.

  7. Hey Aaron!
    I see that you're into cooking, I've been forcing myself to learn how to cook more kinds of food in the last few months just because I was tired of eating the same few meals over and over again. Because of this I've become my friend groups resident chef, I make killer enchiladas. What's your favourite thing to cook?
