Comment:
Such a nice guy, but his lectures are pointless. He doesn't talk about anything that will be on the exams and he gets side tracked so easily that you question why you even showed up to class. Critical on video projects, but he is NOT a tough grader. You'll do well on projects, but will fail exams.

Let me start by saying this: Bill's a really nice guy. A genuine teddy bear. His teaching, on the other hand, isn't quite so good. He rambles/gets lost in lectures. If I didn't come into the class with prior knowledge, I'd be screwed because he doesn't really teach all that much. Overall, he seems a little flaky, but a great guy.

Uninterested in students work. You must hound him for feedback, even then you realize his feedback was not worth your time. Tired old man. He should retire.

Riley knows some stuff about directing TV and lighitng and putting on a show, but if he is ever able to work the chyron or switcher board by himself than I imagine the skies would open up and the four horsemen of the appacolypse would come. Basically his textbook teaches for him too.

What's wrong with getting out early? That can be one of the best things about a professor. Really easy to talk to, willing to help you at any time. Quizzes are EASY if you pay attention AND attend class. Very nice guy.

Bill is a really cool dude. You can talk to him if you have problems. He knows a lot about video and his assignments allow you to be really creative. I had fun in his class. His mid term was based on class productions, so it was easy.

His tests are hell. His assignments are a joke. He cancels class all the time for no reason and never keeps us the entire time. Pretty much a joke. I'm not learning anything even though he clearly knows a lot.

i enjoyed this class. i thought he did a good job. studio production doesnt really require a ton of teacher input after a certain point, but he made it a good time.
