ok, after looking over all of the topics for the online essay i chose:
3. Digital media put the tools of production into the hands of the everyday computer user making it incredibly easy to produce content. These creative skills used to be something that people worked to develop. Now it appears that amateurs can produce content of a fair standard within a relatively short period of time. Where does this leave 'professionals' and highly-skilled artists? Choose one area of creativity and discuss some of the challenges facing practitioners vs amateurs in producing digitalcontent.
the reason i chose this is because i plan to go into film (film critic) and i was brought up on moving images (even though im only 17 and havent really grown up yet). and for this topic and don't know what my opinion is. i admire people like m.night shamalon and quentin tarentino but at the same time i think its good that poor people can reach that goal as well through new communication technologies. i think i will enjoy deciding which side im on...or jsut writing the essay from no point of view but an equal one.
