Okay, so for the assignment for media we have to create an epub.... An electronic book which can go on any book reader. We have to put our film on it that we spent the past 2 terms filming. So far I'm on the last chapter of the book... Chapter nine but I still have to do the directors commentary and record my voice for the chapters, so it reads to you.... thats what I'm hoping at least.... fingers crossed.
Also Mr Andrew said I have to make a new cover for the book, because mine at the moment isn't good enough... It's not like I spent a whole lesson doing it or anything... And because my chapters are too long, I have to put pictures as well as videos in them. Isn't that unfair, I do more work than everyone else, and he tells me I have to do even more work... Oh well.
I have made a demo ebook and put it on my Ipad, it works which is good to see, but the formatting needs a bit of work. Also I was disappointed to see that titles don't show up on it. Which means that if I want the titles, I'll have to put them in individually.
Everyone in my class asks what why we have to create epub's, and not just pdf's, turns out that because with epubs the user can format it, they can change the font and colour and size, to suit their need. If they had a disorder they could still use it, compared to pdfs, which you cannot change.
