What is a multimedia author?

To become a multimedia author, a person needs to be able to collect, construct and present material in a variety of different ways, in addition to using different sources and forms of technology. At the present moment, I am beginning to grasp a better understanding of what multimedia authoring is and how important it is in the world today and in the future. I am also beginning to comprehend what kinds of items to bookmark for the group to research and study for the project. In regards to a theory off of Foucault and Barnes information, I think that no type of multimedia can be without a series of authors to make it interesting and successful and I think that there is no piece of writing that could be considered completely original in this day and age. I am still trying to grasp the meaning of the theories or writing and within our projects.
