I have recently created a video project for my Multimedia Applications class. I decided to do a peaceful video with some bible study aspects, some art clips, and some nature aspects. I wanted to keep it pretty short, but I think that if I had more time or a broader idea it may have been longer. Overall, though, I really like how it turned out. Originally, most of the devotion part was just the video of me talking. But, after…

Instead of finding random links that you have no control over, they will see the interesting things that you’ve been working on. Getting a job can be easier. Most employers will search for…
Short Answer: It’s your website; put anything you want on it. Make sure it is professional, thoughtful and kind. Longer Answer: You will occasionally be asked by one of your teachers to put something that you create for class on your website. They might do this to help you share something great that you did with the rest of the world. They might do it so that you can get feedback from a wider audience. But I hope you also…
