My name is Maya and I&#8217;m a Studio Arts major who focuses on digital mediums like photography, graphic design, digital painting, etc. I&#8217;m also finishing up the CGS Digital Media certificate (taking my last class for it now). I&#8217;m actually\u00a0not taking this class for the certificate, just as a unique replacement for a standard w-intensive. My interest in Digital Media is primarily as a way to inform my own art as well as how I view other pieces\u00a0of art and design. I&#8217;m also very interested in psychology and sociology, and how technology and digital media come together as a culture.<\/p>\n<p>I am the Production Manager and Lead Graphic Designer for The Pitt News. If you ever see me running around in the 15 minutes between classes, I&#8217;m usually trying to lay out part\u00a0of the paper really quickly before my next class. In my free time (ha) I enjoy <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mayaelaine.com\">art stuff<\/a><\/strong>, sleeping, and watching tv and movies. I&#8217;m also heavily involved in a few alternative fashion communities. I attend a lot of events related to Lolita Fashion, a modest fancy-dress style that has roots in Japan and is influenced by Victorian and Rococo styles. Basically, I love dressing up in super detailed, fluffy outfits and going out with others to do things like get tea or visit museums. I love horror movies, musicals, and kids movies. My top five movies are probably <em>Phantom of the Opera<\/em>, <em>The Aristocats<\/em>, <em>Repo: The Genetic Opera<\/em>, <em>My Neighbor Totoro<\/em>, and <em>Perks of Being a Wallflower<\/em>. <em>Criminal Minds<\/em> is my all time favorite, but it isn&#8217;t a movie sooo&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I&#8217;m excited for this class and the wide variety of projects described so far. On that note, here is a .gif of my crested gecko, Vimes, licking his eyeball.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-197\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/annettevee.com\/2016cdm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/smallgeck.gif?resize=300%2C300\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello!
