Reflection: Multimedia Project

Creating my multimedia project was interesting in that it allowed me to consolidate and process all the information that I learned during the time of researching and writing about my topic, sleep. The purpose for creating this multimedia project was to reach a broader audience when it came to the topic of sleep research. The research field is usually catered towards the scientific community and medical practitioners, so with this project I wanted to get this information out in a digestible way to ensure that every day individuals who were inquiring about their sleep could get information. 

While creating this project I originally started with a PowerPoint as my “first draft”, but it quickly shifted into me creating a video that incorporated the PowerPoint itself. I had to record my video numerous times in order to get a cut that I liked and that was easier to edit in post production. I strengthen my ability to transfer written information into a digestible oral format, so that it could be more easily accessible to those around the world via the internet. 

I hope that watchers of my video took away that sleep is important for bodily health and can ensure that they stay healthy just by getting the required amount of sleep that they need. Some additional information that I wanted to include was my research paper and the sources that I used to create the video and research paper from, all of which is included in the description of the video.
