Classroom Introduction

Greetings classmates and teacher

My name is Jeremy Painter. This is my first year at HCCC and my major is Communications Arts: New Media.

I have lots of graphic and web design experience. I have built several websites with Dreamweaver, Photoshop and Fireworks, mostly for bands in Oklahoma. I mostly used Freehand for layout and design (but now that Macromedia was purchased by Adobe, Freehand is no more.) I also have extensive experience in Photoshop.

I worked at Kinko's for 5 years and managed their graphic design department (then it was called Desktop Publishing) and I have designed and created hundreds of resumes, brochures, posters, business cards, forms, etc. I also left Kinko's with tons of digital printing experience.

I have also been extensively trained in Acrobat 8.0 and accessibility. I worked for the state of Oklahoma converting their forms to be come accessible to peoples with disabilities (screen readers, etc.)

In addition to all that software, I am knowledgeable in Microsoft Office suite. I have extensive experience ProTools recording software, and the host of audio plug-ins that come with it.


I look forward to working in the new version of Dreamweaver. The last version I used was Dreamweaver 3.
