  @cbarnes794
  Please understand that we are here to help but we are not here to do your homework for you.

  In order to learn how to blog on this software you need to become self reliant and that means using the step by step tutorial linked to bottom of your admin page http://learn.wordpress.com
  http://learn.wordpress.com/get-flashy/
  Embed audio and video in your posts.

  It also means going to the support docs at http://support.wordpress.com and typing into the searchbox there to find what you need. http://en.support.wordpress.com/?s=videos

  The video embeds that WordPress.com supports for all of our blogs – no upgrade required are found here.
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/

  In the event that you wish to post your own videos please see here documentation here? http://en.support.wordpress.com/videopress/ Note that if you first upload your videos to youtube or another supported site then you do not need to purchase the upgrade.

  Video shortcodes are here – use them. http://en.support.wordpress.com/shortcodes/#video

  For a Flash workaround for videos from other unsupported sources see here > http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2010/07/22/gigya-shortcode-3-widgets/
