Entry Title:
The Great Creatures Of Seaworld Orlando
Project Description:
I created a presentation of different aquatic animals at the SeaWorld amusement park in Orlando, Florida from my previous trip. I have created this presentation of images because there are people who are highly interested in animals and enjoy looking at pictures of different animals. I personally like animals ( especially aquatic animals ) and I think other people should be able to see and at least look at pictures of different animals that you cannot sea in Delmarvas Oceans and Bays. To make this presentation I used CapCut to put the images together into a video presentation. I took the images with an Apple IPhone 13 camera using the normal “PHOTO” option in the camera app and some of the “PORTRAIT” mode options. The song used in the presentation is “ One Song (Pop Version) [ feat. Spencer Lee]” by SeaWorld Attraction and Spencer Lee. ( Also some of the photos might be slightly blurry because the animals are moving and swimming. There might be what looks like dirt splattered everywhere because most pictures were taken through a glass exhibit window that had not recently been cleaned on the inside like the pictures of the manatees.
