Well, I think I'm stuck on videos, but had to show this video since this is my last blog post for this class!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8ir8rVl2Z4.  It's called "The Last goodbye" by Billy Boyd.  I think the editor of this video did a fantastic job of splicing audio and video together to make it emotional.  This video was made as a tribute to Peter Jackson's work in Tolkien's world of Middle Earth, and shows scenes from all six movies. 

Concerning Uses of Space and Time in art (found on page 357), I wanted to point out this hall of mirrors.  I think it fits this qoute from the book well "Entering the installation was both inviting and disprienting.  From any point, all the rooms were visable yet veiled."(357)  This qoute actually refers to an installation in the book, but it holds true for this house of mirrors possibly even more. 

So, I found another video.  I just like videos, they are my favorite.  In this one, Acapella group Pentatonix sings "Mary Did You Know", and while the focus is on their fine vocalizing, I appreciate the video aspect to this song.  I think it adds a lot because one: they filmed in a cave, two: you get to see the singers, three: they filmed in a cave.  Adds drama, in my opinion.

Text and Type Style from page 354 talks about font, and how it can affect the reader's interpretation.  I found this to be true especially when I worked on my propaganda piece.  For that, I used a big bulky jagged font which reminded me of stone.  It was appropriate for what I wanted, because I wanted the viewer to think about how the font related to the background picture, which was layers of rock. 

Since video falls under the multimedia spectrum, I thought Devinsupetramp, from Youtube, does an excellent job of videography.  I like in this video how slow motion is used, how some of the shots don't show the trampoline, and the variety of shots used.  I think using variety helps the viewer comprehend how high the trampoline junkies are flying, and makes the video altogether more interesting.  If the camera had been one stationary shot with ordinary speed I think it still would have been interesting, just not as engaging.   Also, I now desire a trampoline like that.

Starting on page 320 of the book is a description of narrative and nonnarative.  For an example of storytelling, I am taking quite a literal approach and linking here a transcript of the movie "the Hobbit an Unexpected Journey".  It's neat to see the movie in its script form, without any picture to depict it.  The script is just on of the many elements that go into movies.

I saw the Hobbit the Battle of the Five Armies on the opening night, and thought there were some elements relevant to multimedia authoring.  If you haven't seen this movie yet, avert your eyes!  I'm not actually spoiling any of the plot, I just wanted to point out some of the artistic elements.  Particularly, the CGI.  In this movie, CGI is one of the main tools used, and it shows when you watch the movie.  It is done spectacularly and is not obviously noticeable, except when your looking for it.  There are a couple shots with the elf Legolas where they did something to his face/eyes that makes him look fake.  I wasn't trying to look for it either, so I think they just applied too much in some parts of the movie.
