He wanted to go where he could only dream of, his local library! From the comfort of his home in Lake Okeechobee, he must traverse the human land and reach the library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Content &amp; Creation: <\/strong>Media, including photos and videos, were primarily shot by me. Some photos of the alligators were found online on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\">Pexels<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/Main_Page\">Wikimedia Commons<\/a> to fill in pieces of the story. I also included a photo from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/C6EkXqnx0vF\/?igsh=NndiZTFpYWRwNnZo&amp;img_index=5\">PBC&#8217;s Fire Rescue&#8217;s Instagram<\/a>.

I used <a href=\"https:\/\/www.apple.com\/imovie\/index.html\">iMovie<\/a> to edit the video and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canva.com\">Canva<\/a> to create the title page, disclaimer slides, and credit pages. I narrated it, and I included a song in the background from <span><a href=\"https:\/\/audionautix.com\">Audionautix<\/a><\/span>. I also used sound effects from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\">Sound Jay<\/a> for the lake\/water sounds, footsteps, pages turning, and the splash when Walter is released back into the lake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Audio Credits: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Walter\u2019s Quest for Knowledge Script and Narration by Jazmin Jimenez (Licensed under <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc\/4.0\/\">CC BY-NC 4.0)<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/audionautix.com\/\">Travel Light<\/a> by Jason Shaw (<a href=\"http:\/\/audionautix.com\/\">AudionautiX.com<\/a>) (Licensed under <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/4.0\/deed.en\">CC BY-SA 4.0<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Walters Quest for Knowledge Narration by Jazmin Jimenez (Licensed under <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc\/4.0\/\">CC BY-NC 4.0<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/water-sound-effects.html\">Water Splash 02<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/index.html\">SoundJay<\/a> (Royalty Free per the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/tos.html\">SoundJay Terms of Use<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/lake-sound-effects.html\">Lake Waves&nbsp; Lapping Gently on the Beach<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/index.html\">SoundJay<\/a> (Royalty Free per the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/tos.html\">SoundJay Terms of Use<\/a>)&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/footsteps-1.html\">Footsteps Sound Effect 4<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/index.html\">SoundJay<\/a> (Royalty Free per the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/tos.html\">SoundJay Terms of Use<\/a>)&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/page-flip-sounds-2.html\">Page Flip Sound Effect 12<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/index.html\">SoundJay<\/a> (Royalty Free per the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundjay.com\/tos.html\">SoundJay Terms of Use<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Image Credits: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Walter\u2019s Quest for Knowledge Title Page by Jazmin Jimenez (Licensed under <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/2.0\/deed.en\">CC BY 2.0<\/a>) edited using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canva.com\">Canva<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/photo\/young-alligator-swimming-in-florida-wetlands-33707753\/\">Young Alligator Swimming in Florida Wetlands<\/a> by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/@phyllis-lilienthal-2153166936\/\">Phyllis Lilienthal<\/a> (Public Domain per the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/license\/\">Pexels Photo License<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Library with kids and teachers by Jazmin Jimenez (Licensed under <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/2.0\/deed.en\">CC BY 2.0<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Library books and display by Jazmin Jimenez (Licensed under <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/2.0\/deed.en\">CC BY 2.0<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Loula V.
