Introduction to Media Communications and Technologies has been an great asset to my
journey to being in the media industry. The course helped me understand what media
outlets are necessary and conducive to proper networking as well as learning the
requirements to make certain medias go viral. With prior knowledge of social networking
and marketing; this course helped understand certain triggers that appeals to the public to
make media newsworthy.
Also, this course included how to create a media strategy and analysis for issues that
involved organizations and people who are constantly on the forefront of mass media. My
favorite assignment was the Press Release, which enlightened me on how press releases
are created and formatted properly. Which is very important to me while I am educating
myself to gain access into the media communications industry and I believe learning how
to create a press release, media strategies and media analysis is a strong requirement
when considering entering the media communications industry.
With the knowledge I have obtained from MCT, I feel confident in being in a great place to
begin my journey from being a freelance graphic designer to a professional graphic
designer with extra skills in media communications.
