I solely intended the "Media" page to broaden the content that would be provided for visitors, as the written articles would not be for everyone, and thus, I felt it was important that my website had something else to offer. The problem with this, is that I do not want to provide the intellectual property of others just to fulfill the pages's premise, as that would be irresponsible not to mention, legally foolish.
But I am adamant that this page will have videos in some form, but in what shape remains bleak to be pursued with intent. However, there is this idea that is in my head of what could be filmed and also fit in with the premise of the website. But is it is just an idea at this moment in time; and like all ideas it must be pursued to see what could come out of it. That idea is to provide filmed content that inspires and encourages people to realise their potentials to reach their dreams, but in what way or in what style, I am unsure of.
This would entail - at the least - that it would be me to personally act as the giver of inspiration and encouragement to others in these videos. These videos will need to be filmed later, but in the meantime, to facilitate the creation of this page, I have decided that I could not personally impart such powerful wisdom as myself, and only a character propositioned to be wise and mysterious could stand a chance of effectively invigorating visitors in the manner that would work best for the site. Therefore, to have some content to work onto the page in anticipation of these to-be-filmed later videos, I took a few pictures of a character I created and feel would work best on the website, but yet still needs to be better defined to fulfill this premise of inspirational content that the page is intended to provide.
The plan with the content on the page is that it will have a Youtube video embedded onto the page. Looking at W3 Schools and tutorials online, this process is more simple than troublesome. The problem with putting video content into HTML is that not all video formats work well with it, with most requiring that it is converted into an appropriate video format to work efficiently within it. However, if the video were to be put onto Youtube, it would simply need the link for the video to be embedded within HTML and the size of the video box to be specified - and you would be able to have video your website.
As I am not that far into the process of making the videos and embedding them into HTML, I decided that I would embed a picture into my website to show where the videos will go once they are filmed. Again, working with code is much more simple having established a template having worked on the "Home Page", so that this process was of imputation was trouble-free. Unfortunately, the picture I took was taken with the camera in a vertical position, so it does not look right on the web page.
Using the "img src", I implemented the images onto the page and decided that the size of the picture - for now at least, having experimented with it - looks decent enough at a width of 180 and a height of 300 and ensured that the "td" tag gave a specific width to each image so that they could be separated on the page.
Essentially, the picture above, represents how the finalised "Media" page will end up as, with only the YouTube embedded videos replacing the images. Having scoured endless tutorials on how to implement such videos, I am confident that when I produce the video content, they will be able to be applied into the web page with little-to-no hassle.
