For my video project in my multimedia class, we were assigned to create a home video, or one about something we were interested in. I decided to make a tribute video to my dog. She had died in the fall of this past year and I wanted to make something to remember her bye.

For an “on your own” assignment given by Mr. Sommerer in my multimedia applications class, we were assigned to take some quick clips of 8th-grade class am create a music video of sorts. I chose the song Livin’ La Vida Loca by Ricky Martin to help navigate me through the assignment. This song is very upbeat with a lot of rhythms that helped map sections to place video clips.

King Tutankhamen’s Perspective Good day, my title is Pharoh Tutankhamen, son of Akhenaten. You may remember his rein of monotheism. He spent his life forcing the belief of the one god Ra, god of the sun. I am not like my father. Everyone has a choice to what they believe to be true, whether it be one god or many.
