Digital Media Exploration

Project Description:

This assignment was to explore images, animation, audio, and video files. I had to find and credit the source, the licensing information, and any sharing limitations that were to be ethically documented.

PLAY BALL!!

Image: Ballpark in Arlington May 2009.jpeg

I used the Creative Commons site and searched Google for "baseball fields". I chose this image on Wikipedia Commons. It is the previous Texas Ranger stadium.
I copied the image URL and embedded it on my page

Video: Never a Dull Dugout with Adrian Beltre and Elvis Andrus Around

I searched for "baseball clips" on google, and chose the YouTube site. I then refined the search to "Adrian Beltre clips". One of the best third basemens and has a great personality and sense of humor
This is an mp4 video on the YouTube website, but the video originated from mlb.com. I copied the link and embedded the video onto this page.
I was unable to find a specific copyright, but when I searched mlb for copyright licensure it stated that mlb holds the copyright and all images and videos were not to be used for commercial use, but could be shared.

Animation: Three sinkers.gif

I used the Creative Commons, selected the google images box, and searched baseball animations.
the file was found on Wikipedia, I copied the image link and embedded it onto my webpage

the author of this work waived all right and I am able to copy, modify, distribute and perform the work, even for commercial purposes, all without asking permission.

Lesson Learned:

This project made me search out ways to get a clip downloaded onto my webpage. I had to google how to do it, and learned how to copy the URL and embed it onto the page. I also performed hours of searches to find videos that were free to share. I also learned to pay attention to what form of media I was looking at. Creative Commons was a good place to access information about media clips, and allowed me to venture out and search for copyright information on other sites. Though, Creative Commons made it super easy by displaying it with the media. I also learned how to shrink a text box and put it next to my photos on my webpage!!
