Creativity and New Media

I made a video highlight tape of some of my blocks from my volleyball season and posted it to Instagram. My Instagram is private so I took a video of it to post here. I had to crop some of the comments because they were inappropriate. I combined my passion for volleyball and video editing when i created this. In addition i added one of my favorite songs to play in the background. I don't have many Instagram followers but this post gave me the most views and favorites that I've ever had.


(UPDATE: the video I initially tried to post isn't buffering so I attached some screen shots)

Users could play with complete strangers or play with their band members if they couldn't meet up in one location. This new media would create a community of musicians. Who would converge together  and collaborate on creating music together. This form of new media w...

Social Networking Sites

4 very popular sites social media sites include Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Vine (RIP). Facebook owns Instagram and Twitter owned Vine before they ended the project. Facebook and Instagram focus on sharing moments with family and friends where as twitter and vine were meant for more immediate quick communication. Facebook and Instagram focus on connecting users with each other. They don't limit the amount of text/ images you can post because they encourage endless sharing.

In addition Facebook encourages more collaboration. Facebook allows you to plan events and groups that your friends can join and rsvp to. Inst...
