Into to Ornellas

Aloha:}

My name is Justin Ornellas  I am a senior at Hawaii Pacific University majoring in Multimedia.

I have a lot of interest in photography both digital and analog.  I have a background of computer science and information technology.  I want to get involved in the production side of journalism or entertainment.  With the technology boom of the last ten years I feel that knowledge of all mediums is what you need to know.


My new motto is "Art is Problem Solving" 

All great artist have to figure out how to express themselves in there work.  If it is too easy or every one can do it than it is not really art.  To me art is problem solving.  A sculpter has to figure out how to get a figure out of a stone. a painter has to make a decision with every stroke he makes.  I learned this mainly from doing film photography.  The process of getting a image on a piece of film then into a computer is many steps of problem solving.

I believe that a true professional in any industry must be a problem solver.  The technology whether it be cameras or computers are only tools that we can use.  And the true inovation comes with the ability to solve a problem and make decisions.   While a tv or film director must make the more creative decisions the producers job is basically to be one big problem solver and is very important for getting the job done.

Blog Mission:
My Plan for this blog is to bring up some interesting topics that relate to our class and to try to get people interested in new ways of looking at multimedia.
