PAUSE AND EFFECTS

The things that I thought was effective about this presentation was the perspective on how the phtographer took the photos. It made other people think another different way and also out of the box. The multimedia that was used in this presentation are images and text. I wanted to know more about the expressions and I think that if they added audio, it would have helped. The graphics showed us all the simplest little things that we people dont notice, and also how they effect our lives.

FORECLOSURE

I think this presentation shows people that Foreclosure can happen to anyone. People lose their jobs or have medical bills to pay which results people losing their houses. This presentation is like a "wake up call" for other people. The multimedia that was used in this presentation were graphics, quotations, text, and audio. The graphics help people visualize the emotions and also the situations that the people are in. I wanted to know more about how their families reacted to it and also more information on the foreclosure.
