Reviews of professor Brian O'Neill

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This course isn't just an easy art class for the credit, I was given more work than expected. Be prepared to learn programs that may be new to you on your own especially with the online course. I didn't get feedback along with my grades and my questions weren't always answered.

Brian is a great teacher. Lectures were clear and he didn't overwhelm students with information. If you were struggling with anything, he was willing to help. Even though hes been in the design field for many years, he didnt expect professional work from his students, although you need to put a lot of effort into your designs in order to do well.

Great Prof! Make sure that you attend the Zoom Meetings if you are taking his classes online. Lots of graphical wisdom and expertise.

This class was confusing and the projects weren't explained very well. The tutorials were a lot of unnecessary work too. I would not recommend this class.

What a cool, kind, and open instructor. He has the nicest voice, which is so pleasant to listen to during lectures, and he has a wealth of knowledge he'll share if you come to class each day. Just do the work!

Brian is awesome! He has years of experience in the design field, & gives great advice if you're aspiring to go down the design career path. He really cares about helping you grow in your thought and concept of design. For the love of god, don't wait until the last week to start your tutorials. Also, count how many times he says "meat & potatoes".

Art 185 was a pretty easy class. Nevertheless, I feel like I learned quite a bit about visual communications and art technology. Brian is a solid choice for a professor. He's a bit hands-off and lets you make art, but he also has some helpful learning material available. He was also a somewhat generous grader.

Awesome teacher! He makes this class pretty fun and is always looking for ways to make it easier for us. I would recommend attending the zoom meetings as he talks a lot about the projects on them. It's not a hard class, but it's not super easy either. He grades easy, too. All the quizzes and test have study guides and are super easy.

I loved this class. Mr. O'Neill is a bright, funny person. You will have to use three Adobe programs, but his tutorials on how to use them are very helpful. The class is spent on 3 big projects spaced out, so you get a lot of time practicing. Make sure you know when deadlines are though! He is flexible with late work, but they can creep up on you.
