Unit 04 | Interactive Media

Moreover, the videos serve the purpose of educating and also inspiring users, and possibly some entertainment can come from listening to music and watching videos. For my images most of the ones in my website will actually be illustrations made my myself in Photoshop or perhaps some will be photos of myself edited. However I will also be sourcing some images or videos from Pexels as those are royalty free, also there is younger photos of myself from the internet however as they are of me I believe I should be okay to use them. The reason I have chose...
