Wk 5 EOC: Midterm

After being in this class for five weeks, I have learned a numerous tips and information that plays a key role in my career as a photographer. I have learned the fundamentals of what it takes to create and carry out a successful business in my trade. Being a photographer is hard work that takes a lot of time and patients to succeed. I still have yet to learn what it really takes to become a business. This class has given me much insight on what it takes to be in business, and has given me an advantage that I did not have before. I have gained important knowledge of what it takes to run a business, which gives higher hopes as I step into my career as a creative professional. I think I am doing well in this class. It is a lot more interesting than I originally thought it was going to be. Each week we go over key points that are involved with making a business that I would have never thought of in a million years. I have met all of the deadlines for all of the work that has been assigned. I docked myself points for the accounting software paper because I turned it in a few minutes after the beginning of class. I didn’t want to give myself the full on hundred points for the twitter grade either. Even though I have all of my tweets are in place, there are at most some points with three days in between posts, which is why I decided to give myself eighty out of one hundred. As for attendance I missed a day of class which made it necessary for me to deduct twenty five percent off of participation. I have all of my work done and turned in on time with the few exceptions of a couple tweets, and the accounting software paper. Other than that I feel that I have a good understanding of the Marketing and Promotions material we have discussed for the past five weeks, and have done a good job in this class so far.
