In physics you learn optics (lenses, raytracing, reflection, etc.). mechanics (anything that moves) I took physics in what we call CEGEP here in Canada, well in Quebec, before going to University and I find that it helps a lot. I am still a newbie, but so far the little things that i've done, I thought 50% physics and 50% art. I think it would be interesting for you taking physics. depends on each individual you know!
