In this project, I was able to find different forms of digital media online to display my knowledge on the different kinds of multimedia and the way they are and can be used.

I took this picture at my high school in my hometown after a baseball game and was absolutely stunned. I always described this picture in several words, but I would say this view describes beauty more than any set of words can.
I chose to use a more personal video that I used to help me get recruited to college by posting a highlight video on YouTube to help me send links to college coaches in my recruitment process. I made this video through CapCut on my phone to allow the clips to flow together and make it complete. I collected these videos through my high school's live feed, where they would stream our games by screen recording.

An example of an animation is a GIF that is commonly used and seen to be used for humor in a response through digital media.
While finding this gif, I went through the steps of locating it, saving it to my files, and exporting it to my Google Drive to make it easier to upload here on my portfolio.
I was not able to find any information on this particular GIF, as I found it from the World Wide Web side by side with many others, making it hard to go back and find the proper licensing information.
Just to the right is my digital media example of an .mp3 or audio clip I found on the internet from a free download site, where I also could not find the licensing information to tell me what sort of license was used to claim ownership of the creator. After I found this audio clip from the free website, I saved it to my files and then to my Google Drive to use this Google Sites page to embed and insert. Doing this made it easy to insert into this page for my digital media page and easily accessibility.
While completing this lesson, I was able to learn how to find which copyright license to use for my own work and how to embed links to make them show up in my pages more easily and make the accessibility much easier to navigate to a new tab to view. I knew a little bit about different types of digital media, but not to the extent that I learned while doing this project, which I highly enjoyed completing and learning the different types of media styles that go into the four that we used, such as images, audio, videos, and animations.
