 Here is my Question 4 response, created in Panopto, a video sharing and screen recording platform! I knew I wanted to screen share and specifically point out the functions I used for my response to this question, so I searched for software that I could use (besides Zoom). I found Panopto, which gives access to editing tools and up to 5 hours of footage, and it was super simple to operate. It was probably the best software I had found for this response. (You might want to make the video full screen to see some segments of the video more easily. Also, the captions are auto-generated only, so they are not fully accurate.) https://pro.panopto.com/Panopto/Pages/Viewer.aspx?tid=df14a21f-bd35-41c0-91e7-acfa00530f28

 Here is my response to Question 3, made as a movie in iMovie. I uploaded it on YouTube since the video was too big to embed directly. I wanted this response to be a more personal "editor's interview", and since I have an iPhone, iMovie allowed me to directly upload the videos from my phone and arrange them. The simple editing/text tools and provided transitions were all I needed to create a coherent interview. I was shocked to find I could even add background music! https://youtu.be/PXHfuRzhHww

 Here is my response to Question 2 in the form of a Prezi! I decided to use the Prezi format because it lets me include a lot more text and information than most platforms. The sub-topic function was highly useful for this, and the presentation templates are all modern and smooth. The presentation can be viewed with the link below. To read through it, simply hit the play button and click the arrows at the bottom of the page to navigate. https://prezi.com/view/Veygov0ApKTPNe8doj9g/

 Here is my response to Question 1, in the form of a PowerPoint with audio! I had to upload it to YouTube since the file was too large to directly embed in a blog post. I felt PowerPoint was the best platform to use because it would allow me to record audio and display the key points of the conventions I talk about. I didn't need to show images in great detail either, so that was not an issue. I was also able to transition at my own pace, which was super convenient, and made presenting my points much easier. https://youtu.be/Ar0sRHBNJLA

 At last, here are the final drafts of my pages. This is Marigold, a general interest magazine focused on guiding girls and teaching one another. This particular issue focuses on the college process, although there are other topics covered in the issue as well. I've spent months preparing and editing, and I'm very happy to share my magazine with the world!

    After making edits based on my peer review and my own ideas, I feel that my magazine is truly ready to be published. When I originally published it, I felt accomplished, but after a few days I felt like it wasn't quite its best. Now that I've made my edits, I think my magazine has reached its full potential.      I worked on the edits page by page. For the cover, minimal changes were made, but it looks better now; I shifted some of the text on the cover with the black arrow tool to make it easier to read. I also made a very slight change in the color of my selling line by editing its swatches in the CC library, so it was more visible.      The table of contents underwent the most change. I made a completely new marigold graphic in Photoshop, and this time I added some blue flowers and green leaves to add variety. I'm very happy with how it came out, and it fits perfectly on the page. I shifted all the text onto one side by changing the alignme...
