Project Description
For this project, I had to explore different types of digital media and learn how to use them responsibly by crediting the source properly. I found and shared examples of an image, GIF (graphics interchange format), and a video. from YouTube Shorts.

Lessons Learned
Lessons Learned
Through this project, I was able to reflect on how many times I have used digital media without properly crediting or licensing. Throughout the making of this website, I have been using GIFs for my headers, but I did not think to check whether or not it was free to use, I had just assumed that since it was online it was free for public consumption. I also learned that all videos on YouTube are under a standard license and how to embed a video onto a website.
