4.3.3
OVERVIEW

MULTIMEDIA PRODUCTION

Multimedia can be defined as a computer based interactive communications process that incorporates text, graphics, animation, video and audio. Multimedia provides an environment in which the user can interact with the program. Multimedia can be delivered in the form of CDs or web-based using the Internet. The production of multimedia involves 6 phases. They are analysis, design, implementation, testing, evaluation and publishing phases. In this module, we will go through each phase in detail to produce a multimedia production that will be delivered in the form of CD. REQUIREMENTS A.

B. Phase 2 - Design
LEARNING OUTCOMES You should be able to: 1. 2. 3. DURATION: I). apply CASPER into multimedia project; provide an overview of the project in the flow chart ; and create storyboards. 4 periods What is design phase?

Introduction:

In the design phase; the course content, navigational structure, assets, approach and graphic design are developed in detail. Sample graphics and layouts are established and technical requirements are specified. a). Activity 1

Study the CASPER design principles and apply it to in your multimedia project. CASPER Screen Design And Layout Principles

Contrast
The principle of contrast states that, if two items are not exactly alike then it makes them different. Contrast provides interest within a piece of graphic and keeps the observer entertained.

Alignment
Alignment is the idea that, while items are separated by idea and space (the principle of proximity) they are still all part of the same page. Nothing should be placed on a page arbitrarily; each item should have a visual connection with something else on the page.

www.ppk.kpm.my

Learning Module: Multimedia Development

Simplicity
Gaining attention is an important part in any communication act, it is important to try to keep your message as simple as possible:

use accurate words for text and graphics as it is absolutely necessary to get your point across superfluous graphics can interfere with understanding. an over abundance of fonts or colours can distract rather than assist learning.

The general rule of thumb is to use graphics that are as simple as possible when displaying content on the screen. Provide the main ideas and a means of getting more information for those who might need or desire it.

Proximity
The principle of proximity states that things, that are closer together, will be seen as belonging together. Looking at the picture on the right, since the horizontal rows of circles are closer together than the vertical columns, we perceive two vertical lines. Since the first two columns and the last two columns have less space between them than the centre two columns, we perceive two groups of two columns.

Emphasis
One method used to attract attention in the design of a screen or work of art is the use of a focal point. A focal point draws your attention to the most important element on the page. There are several techniques used to emphasize the most important object on a page. Emphasis by Isolation If most of the elements in a work of art are grouped closely together, an object by itself stands out as a focal point. Emphasize with text attributes. Use highlighting or boldface to draw attention to the main points. Underlining rarely looks good on screen. Blinking should only be used in critical situations. It is distracting. Vary the size and rotation of text to attract attention. Scrolling text is generally not a sound practice in interactive multimedia (IMM). Multiple fonts should rarely be used. Pick a good font and work with its different styles.

Learning Module: Multimedia Development

Repetition
Repetition is the idea that consistency can be gained by repeating elements throughout a page or series of pages. Repetitive items in a piece, tie it together as a whole. The best computer interface will maintain a consistent look. In particular, icons used for navigation should maintain one position to avoid confusing the learner. It is also wise to use similar font faces and colour schemes throughout a particular interface, unless the change is used to signal a new unit, topic, or section

DURATION : 2 periods

Learning Outcome : Students should be able to assess their own multimedia project by using the checklist form. a). What is evaluation phase?

The evaluation of a project is an on going process. This phase of the development process focuses on summative evaluation and measures the effectiveness of the project. Evaluation process focuses on the product used rather than its features and functions. It is done earlier to discover any design faults and reduce the costs of correcting the faults. It can reduce the need for technical help and training costs. Thus, increasing users satisfaction. Evaluation reduces over design by making you aware of what the user really needs. There is a range of different types of evaluation that can be applied to an educational multimedia product. Some of them are stated in the evaluation form below. http://www.tecmasters.com/Multimedia_pg1.html http://www.tedi.uq.edu.au/mag/view.asp?Section=61
