Plan

Surprisingly my first story board and video fit the design specification perfectly,
so I couldn't be bothered to create a second one, cause that would probably end
up having 2 exact same video.
I was happy I did such a great job on my first try so I could simply keep it as my
final one.

Evaluation

Although I already checked this in the process of the 'Plan', my video still fits into all
aspects of my design specification. Other MMPs had more and better animations,
but part of my design specification was that I keep the effects simple, so the viewer
is able to focus on the actual poem, and not get distracted by animations. И алсо гот

My Poem

Pointlessness

It's when I do what all kids do in the morning
It's when I leave home and start walking
When I hope the day won't bring anything bad
When I go with books, food and drink in my bag.

Then it's there, not knowing if it's right
My nervousness, so uncertain, so not fun
Do I have what needs to be done?
How am I not sure, since I know I checked last night?

Walking the same way in opposite direction
I know the doubts were all for nothing
But soon the fresh relief is over
And the unpleasant fear's returning.

Good example

Not the best mulitemedia poem

What is multimedia poetry?

Multimedia poetry, also known as video-poems, cine-poetry, or poetry films is a mixed media format in which poem, image and sound interact symbiotically. Also, it is sometimes text that is written on the screen, or text that is simply interpreted by the visual artist with imagery and music. It is the perfect combination of image and word that takes cinema and poetry to a brave new threshold. The visual images often deepen the author's meaning, provide startling contrast, or locate new alliances within the inherent metaphors of the poet's text. Stills, animation, computer graphics, and filmed imagery, can all broaden and enhance the experience of the listener/viewer. With the addition of music or other complementary sounds, the result is a striking and welcome alternative to traditional poetry recitals.

Web 2.0

“Web 2.0” is a second generation of web expansion and design, that is intended to facilitate communication, secure information, sharing, and cooperation on the World Wide Web. As Tom O’ Reilly, the inventor of the World Wide Web said, the Web 2.0 is the business revolution in the computer industry caused by the move to the Internet as a platform, and an attempt to understand the rules for success on that new platform.
In a podcast interview, Tim Berners-Lee, English computer scientist said, “Nobody really knows what Web 2.0 means... If Web 2.0 for you is blogs and wikis, then that is people to people. But that was what the Web was supposed to be all along.”
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_2.0)
These are some of the benefits of Web 2.0:
Web 2.0 provides a web platform that is highly functional in obtaining and implementing sales strategies.
Web 2.0 development enables better use of the core enterprise application.
You can make use of semantic tagging technology that can raise the navigation of internal and external web pages, thereby leading to increased sales of products/services.
For greater employee satisfaction and collaboration within the organization web 2.0 can be utilized to its best, creating waves of networking achievement stories.
It very well targets the marketing resources, hastens the product development life cycle, and gives apt feedback of the new products.
Web 2.0 uses its users and bloggers for establishing a positive image and creating positive publicity among the masses.
It makes the Internet marketing a compulsory process so that your marketing budget is used to its best.
It improves the quality of social interaction for anyone across the globe. Here, views, experiences, recipes, thoughts, comments, etc are easily exchanged.
You can post photos, guest books, albums, how-to guides, etc. Also maps for planning traveling that are interactive in nature.

Even though Web 2.0 has many disadvantages and backsides, they are not discussed about in the media very often. But, one of the key problems with Web 2.0 is reliance; also, you can become heavily dependent on the Internet. Because nowadays many web services are offered for free, they are not secure and safe, and they could easily be targeted by hackers.
These are some of the most popular Web 2.0 tools:
Facebook
Blogger
Wordpress
MySpace
YouTube
Del.icio.us
Digg
Furl
Twitter
Flickr
Firefox
Gmail
Google
Google docs
