=Design Brief= NOTE: the design brief is a document that goes to the designer and manufacturer that allows them to know just what you want them to create. When you design and create the multimedia artifact, you will use this as a guide, and in the end it will be a check list to evaluate the product. Benefits and Drawbacks: The type of multimedia that I have chosen to use is a video. Some of the benefits of a video are that in a video you can portray your point by showing people and give them the vision that you have. Seeing things is one of the best ways to learn and videos help show people. People will see how it is meant to be in your mind and give the people your way and unlike in other multimedia will not have people having crazy imaginations that have nothing to do with your ideas. Also, in things like voice overs and power points things are not interesting and people usually never watch them. Videos catch peoples attention and that means more viewers and it will also be more interesting.

Some of the drawbacks are that sometimes in videos when talking people might not understand you. Your voice may be too fast or it may not be understandable and others may not understand and your point will not be very clear. When no one can understand what you say and don't get your point the video will be a failure. Another disadvantage is that sometimes people will not like your work. This will cause the video to get worse reviews and a bad grade. Sometimes editing a video and even uploading will be hard. It will be hard to know what to add and take out things and put them on later.

Summarize the Challenge
Use this space to write a **paragraph** that summarized in your own words what the challenge is and how you have personalized it. Include the following: With my video I am planning to get younger people who are 18 and under. This is because people who are 18 and over are allowed to vote and they are young so they probably do not much. I want younger children to know because they may want to know about what they see on T.V. like I do. Our primary purpose for communications is to entertain in an educational way. People will like it and they would still learn something. The type of multimedia I plan to use is a video but if this does not work I will probably do a voice thread or power point.
