[LAUIL601] Visual Essay - Considerations and Design Problems

 • I have a YouTube video so how would I get around implementing images, text and a video?

• I'm not the most technologically sound and I'm getting on in age; I don't know what the latest sites and things are anymore

• After contacting Amy, Google slides will house all 3 elements and be acceptable to submit as a visual essay but part of me feels like it's not worthy enough of the time I've spent writing a dissertation?

• Would creating a PDF in Adobe Acrobat allow for multimedia? (after looking into this, yes it does allow video)

• I need to do some more research into what issuu can do. I had an account from 2016-17 in my first year of the illustration course but I often get emails to pay for premium. I remember trying to access it in my second year and they wanted me to pay for it as I'd been a member for a year at this point. I have now looked into issue again as I was going to create a PDF and then post to issue. You can create an issue by all means but you CANNOT embed a code onto your blog for free without payment. Fees are £14 a month!


Options:

• Google Slides

• PDF in Adobe Acrobat

• Issuu

• Combining images and text in Word


Considerations

Accessibility for my screenreader. I cannot create something that is not going to be inaccessible and that I will struggle with but I also want to honour the time, effort and care that has gone into this project for the past few months. I have not taken this dissertation lightly and have faced my fears. I want to house it into something worthy.

• Multimedia of images, text and video. My outcomes includes a video, images and poetry.

• Adding multimedia to PDFs: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/adding-multimedia-pdfs.html?mv=product&mv2=acrobat#

I may need to screen capture my Youtube video to post into the PDF.
