Art Difuria

My reaction to Art Difuria was basically sleep. Though Van Hanskirk had valuable information, I had just came from a history class an hour before his presentation. I was not prepared for another art history class. I was first engaged in his presentation when he was talking about his personal life but when he went into detail about his book, he lost my interest.

Ben Fink

Ben Fink was invited to the school as former student. He started at MCA but finished at the University of Memphis as a Graphic Designer. His presentation was mainly about his professional journey as well as personal development.
His presentation included exotic photographs that were very appealing. I was very engaged for the first portion of the presentation but towards the end, he seemed to fizzle out. I think one of the main problems was the structure of the speech. If he would have had a better structure of presentation, it would have been better.
