1. Upload your slideshow as a movie to your blog posting. [If you have trouble with this, check to see that you exported it in the correct format.]

2. List the search terms (words) that you used to find images (for the letters of your name and the images that describe you) and why?
~ I typed in "things that look like the letter a/h" for the As and H in Sarah. I typed in "windy road" for the letter S because I knew roads looked like that and thought it would look cool. I typed in "shamrock" for the B because my friend said it would look cool and so did I. I typed in "white picket fence close up" for the E because I knew on the side it would look like an E. I typed in "golden gate bridge close up" for the H because I knew the supports would look like an H. I typed in "cane handle" for the R because I knew it would look like an little r. I typed in "stoplight side close up" for the E because I thought it would look cool. I typed in "st.louis arch" for the N because I love the Arch and thought it looked like a N. I typed in "flamingo neck close up" for the S because I thought it would look pretty. I typed in "softball" for the picture of the softball because I play softball and wanted to include it in my project. I typed in "cross" for the picture of the three crosses because I love Jesus and he is a big part in my life and I wanted to include him in my project

3. What skills did you use/learn in this project?

~ I learned how to make a slideshow in iPhoto and how to export something.

4. Describe how you might use these skills and apply them to a real-world situation.

~ I could use this to make a slideshow for a company in the future and how to send it to each person without using email. 

5. This was a more creative project than our first 2. Did you prefer it or the more cut and dry assignments in Word and Excel?

~ I preferred this project more. I was able to be more creative, and it applied more to me which I liked. 

6. How did your project use the transformative property of borrowed images, music, and information to comply with the Copyright Law of 1976? [...not just that you cited the information - citing is not enough...tell me how you transformed what you've taken into something new, etc., How did you transform the music, information, images, etc.?
~ I took the images and modified them so they weren't the same as they were when they were on the internet. I cropped many of the pictures and enhanced all of them so they looked brighter and better.
