I spent my 50 minutes of independent work getting familiar with Meograph. I read through all of the information that the website contained and started trying to develop my own mix in order to really understand how the tool worked. I decided to make a mix about my travels with my family, using pictures from the Cascades and New Orleans. I filled in the Writer/Designer analysis questions as I was exploring the interface.

Why I Did It…

Filling out the Writer/Designer analysis questions form is going to be an extremely useful tool for organizing my web essay and ensuring that I cover all of the different aspects of analysis, including the rhetorical situation, design choices, modes of communication, and affordances and constraints. Also, playing around with creating my own mixes is important because I am actually enabling myself to analyze the tool from an actual user’s perspective.

I was attracted to this tool because it is a brand marketing tool, and I want to pursue a career in digital brand marketing. Therefore, this tool could be something that I could utilize in my future job. I also can use this tool to create a video focused on my brand that I can then display on my personal website. Analyzing this tool will allow me to add another skill to my arsenal that I can implement in my future career and that I can show a future employer in order to make me a more qualified and tech savvy candidate.
