ELECTRONIC MEDIA
The
electronic media is the most dynamic form of all interactive media. It
illustrates the characteristics of its time by being a form of asynchronous
communication, for example, the social networking and also the anonymity
characteristic at this moment people chose who they want to be, i.e., posing as
a beautiful lady on social media. It differs from other forms of art since it
is diverse and it changes as time goes by and therefore more improvements can
be made years to come. It has come to be appreciated more by this generation
since it offers a wide variety of art in itself for Example music and movies.
Its impacts in the society include: collecting and distributing diverse quality
content meeting political, social and cultural needs of every society
[2] The
Odyssey is one of the Ancient Greek epic poems attributed to Homer. Odysseus
faces many challenges, trials and tribulations hindering his way home his home
in Ithaca after the end of the Trojan War thereby bringing him face to face
with danger and various temptations, moreover spiritual growth. The Odysseus
can be perceived to have various supernatural powers since he is attributed to
appearances by the gods and goddesses who help and at the same time hinder the
hero. Goddesses, Calypso and Circle, are the two females that directly affect
and impede Odysseus homecoming trip while god Hermes appears and aids him from
the islands. This poem generally influences my personal life because there are
very many challenges we face and we might give in before we face the various
challenges by trying to overcome them and afterward come out much stronger by
conquering them. Also, it goes on to make me understand that there are people
who we meet during our lives and they help us in the many troubles we find
ourselves in. Moreover there many are spiritual powers that work effortlessly
to hinder us from our goals and various accomplishments.

CRITIQUE OF AUDIO VISUALS
The
medium succeeded in sending the message since the message had clarity whereby
forms of gestures, voice inflections, tone variation, mood, and facial
expressions were involved. When the audio-visuals are combined, then the cues
lead to positive retention whereby the listeners get to retent the message from
the source of information.
By
using audio-visuals, i.e., videos and visual aids, the multimedia experience is
created which becomes engaging to the audience. The kind of message sent to the
viewer is captivating in the sense that the message was clear and of high
quality, therefore, avoiding the middle of the message resulting in
misunderstanding. The message was immediate due to the high speed of
multi-media sources.
