Nice Simple Multimedia

As I was searching to find out more about the financial crisis and where it stands after seeing the special report on the television as I woke up this morning. This afternoon, I was searching through washingtonpost.com and stepped across this video. Chris Cillizza gives his weekly update rendition on a topic of choice in under two minutes. He is very down to earth and has personality and spunk. I really feel he is the essence of multimedia and I would like to strive and have a multimedia production like his in the near future.

Flash is the word

First off I apologize for the unresponsiveness to blogging in these past few days. I have become attacked by a single word... "flash." Not like a photograph, no the new media web craze and building website. As an aspiring multimedia expert, I advise all to learn or at learn become familiarized with flash. To know web design will make a profound difference. So get out there and get your feet wet. I will be working on my second web site, my person profile for the next few weeks, once when both are posted live to web, I will be sure to apply the link to my blog. This may take a while, so please bear with me during my flash creation times and understand, I may not be blogging as much, but I will be sure to share my accomplishments and thousands of struggles along the way. Until then keep on interview and building up those amazing skills :-)

post election depression

Now that we have a new president, like many journalists we have gone into post election depression. What in the world does a journalist discuss now that this two year mania of electing the 2008 presidential election has come to a close knowing Obama is the winner. I personally have created many sorts of podcasts on the electoral winning, but what now. How does one who is multimedia follow through the media change of who is running for president to who is the winner. Earlier this week I stumbled across one of the best multimedia examples of being into the news of our new elected president while keeping the audience entertained and aware. Please visit http://snipurl.com/59o09 [www_npr_org] to learn more and let me know what you think. Personally I feel it's a great concept and found great interest in this NPR podcast.

Tension is build as we wait.

Tension is building and the will to know is growing stronger and strong. Choosing a new president to represent the United States is huge. All I hope is that the right candidate was chosen and that everyone who wished went out and voted. From what I heard lines were long and strenuous and I am satisfied to hear many still waited no matter how long the line. http://snipurl.com/549bo [www_campusphilly_com] Cannot wait to articles and pieces on our new president

Voting is almost here :-)

So, tomorrow is election day. In my eyes, it does not matter who you vote for as long as you vote. Now this does not mean just go in and flick a name just to see what its like to go into a polling machine. No do some research and pick a candidate who means something to you. You have one day, so look around and see what each candidate is about. As for me, being the newsy journalist that I am, I can almost be certain that I will be glued to following up more and more and more about each and where they stand and how the numbers burn out. For me, voting day is one of my favorite days ever! Especially this years, its for certain it will be close. So do yourself a favor and vote!
