An Intro iMovie is a video editing software application that is solely available on Apple products. Meaning Macs, iPhones, IPads, IPad Minis, and iPod Touches. On October 5, 1999, it was originally released as a Mac application and by 2003 it has become standard and it is available for free for all the aforementioned Apple products. To use iMovie, a user imports their videos to the software. Before importing videos to the software application one then has the option to create a trailer or a movie. After selecting the movie option, the user can import videos to begin the editing process. While editing, users also have the options to import photos and music. Understanding iMovie for a first-time user is relatively simple. There is literally a YouTube tutorial for everything. This stands true for both life and iMovie. So do what you would like with that advice in mind. Also in iMovie, the user can do pretty much anything any other decent video editing software can do. Split videos i...

Question One: How has Twitter been used beyond socializing, and for marketing? Twitter has been used for just about everything. Going beyond the realm of just socializing with those in the world around you; Twitter is also used as quite the marketing tool by advertisers and organizations alike. There have been ads placed on Twitter from everything from the new Mr. Clean ad, to political party’s agenda, to an event called Hennypalooza. Yes, an event featuring everyone’s favorite brown liquor.  One way in particular that Twitter has become a marketing tool is by the insertion of sponsored posts from brands. Studies have shown fewer and fewer people are actually watching less television and spending more time on social media platforms—Twitter included. With the advent of things like TiVo, DVR, Netflix, and the multitude of other on-demand, commercial-free streaming services, the chances of a consumer seeing a commercial is getting smaller. Advertisers had had to adapt to new tre...

via GIPHY The experience one may have with writing their first wikiHow article can be challenging, fun, tedious, chaotic, and obnoxious. To put it succinctly; a whirlwind. Creating a wikiHow article for the first time can definitely be whirlwind. Is that statement a tad hyperbolic? Possibly. Is it an undeniable fit for when wikiHow gives one wikiTrouble? Absolutely. Before choosing any wikiHow topic it would be advantageous of the writer to have some sort of expertise in the given field they choose to write about. If one is going to choose the topic of creating a wikiHow on How To Create Holographic Heart Nail Art , having an extensive background in nail art and nail polish is already a great start. Doing the groundwork is key for your wiki to succeed! Sure this sounds super cheesy, but it does not make it any less of a true statement. Creating a wikiHow article surrounding the creation of a particular style of nail art is second nature if one already has been writing about n...

Welcome back to BrianaChantel v. COM 336. If you caught the slight  nod to Jay-Z  in the title for this post (or, at the very least, found the title amusing) your welcome back has been quantified. Outdated hip-hop culture puns aside, this post ventures into the land of wikiHow. To be even less vague about the nature of today's post, there are three interesting topics that somehow managed to not be on wikiHow at all. wikiHow Topic One How to Create Single Stripe Vertical Gradient Nail Art The idea for this topic came about due to the rising nail art trend of a singular stripe of gradient that is vertically placed on the nail bed. With this current trend sweeping Instagram nail art feature accounts and nail technician workstations alike, a tutorial for this particular look is worth the creation. Not only can it be done in a salon by a licensed nail tech, it can be done at home by any DIY nail art enthusiast. wikiHow Topic Two How to Create Holographic Heart Nail ...

Oh, the Internet. It seems as if it’s been around my entire life and yet I can still remember a time when it was not. It’s odd to think there was ever period in my life when I was not attached to a smartphone or hopelessly dependent on an Internet-capable device. I guess American Horror Story: Murder House’s Vivienne Harmon said it best, “we are a slave to our conveniences.” One of my first memories using the Internet is from the late 1990s. My mom had just purchased a Hewlett-Packard desktop. After putting together the brand new computer desk and office chair, my state-of-the-art information superhighway—a cliché and outdated term I know, but remember this was the 1990s after all—was ready. At first, I spent a considerably decent amount of time playing the preinstalled version of solitaire while “The Amanda Show” aired in the background on the large television set behind me. Then, somehow, I ended up with one of those AOL discs that provide you with X-amount of time to browse th...
