Reviews of professor James Arnold

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Does not seem to understand Dropbox, or his own homework submission schedule. Descriptions and due dates of assignments are inaccurate, as the website will say one thing, and he will say another. Seems to attach random grades, and never gives feedback. Tests always include multiples of the same questions, as if he doesn't proofread any of it.

The entire semester is learning the ropes of studio "live" production with a few quizzes and papers. He allows you pretty much total creative freedom once he knows your class is capable of handling themselves. It's a very fun class and Arnold is a funny guy! As long as you put effort into his class he's an enjoyable professor.

Arnold does not understand the concept of Multi Cam and for anyone wanting to go into the field he is very Single Cam focused. Be prepared to be told you are wrong even though you were probably right.

Incredibly unorganized. He's not transparent with how he grades things, including the final project. He gets behind on lectures and goes on long tangents, and often finds random YouTube videos to teach important content. His tests are typically worded exactly the same as the (randomly thrown-together) study guides, though, so those are pretty easy.

Prof. Arnold is not the most organized man and he got behind every day in class so we did not have time to go over all the information. His deadlines are unclear and he doesn't do a good job explaining them either. On the bright side, he knows a lot about the subject and does not grade very tough. P.s. his lectures are long and drawn out.
