Multimedia

From your previous module you have learned on how to

use internet as a good reference of a certain topic and at the
same time, on how so summarize the information’s gathered.
On this module, you will learn different multimedia that can
help you to have a good presentation of your report. We must
remember that Multimedia-is a form of communication that
combines different content forms such as text, audio, images,
animations, or video into a single presentation, in contrast to
traditional mass media, such as printed material or audio
recordings. Popular examples of multimedia include video
podcasts, audio slideshows, animated shows, and movies.
The multimedia is a good way for communication because that

that, multimedia has animation, music, video and more of this.
This can easier to attract people to listen what you talking
about. It also has let more interest to people listen and see
when u presents a product.

Categorization

Multimedia may be broadly divided into linear and non-linear

categories:
 Linear active content progresses often without any
navigational control for the viewers such as a cinema
presentation;
 Example: pre-recorded instructional videos or fictional
movies recorded for entertainment purposes, and printed
books and magazines.

 Non-linear uses interactivity to control progress as with

a video game or self-paced computer-based
training. Hypermedia is an example of non-linear content.
Example:

Multimedia presentations can be live or recorded:

 A recorded presentation may allow interactivity via

a navigation system;
 A live multimedia presentation may allow interactivity via

an interaction with the presenter or performer.

Elements of Multimedia
Are text, image/graphics, audio, video, and animation are
the five multimedia elements.

 Text- All multimedia productions contain some amount of text.

The text can have various types of fonts and sizes to suit the
profession presentation of the multimedia software.
 Graphics- Graphics make the multimedia application attractive.
They are more often used than text to explain a concept, present
background information etc. There are two types of Graphics:
o Bitmap images- Bitmap images are real images that can be
captured from devices such as digital cameras or scanners.
Generally bitmap images are not editable. Bitmap images
require a large amount of memory.
o Vector Graphics- Vector graphics are drawn on the
computer and only require a small amount of memory.
These graphics are editable.
 Audio- A multimedia application may require the use of speech,
music and sound effects. These are called audio or sound
element of multimedia. Speech is also a perfect way for teaching.
Audio are of analog and digital types. Analog audio or sound
refers to the original sound signal.
  Video- The term video refers to the moving picture, accompanied
by sound such as a picture in television. Video element of
multimedia application gives a lot of information in small
duration of time.
 Animation- Animation is a process of making a static image look
like it is moving. An animation is just a continuous series of still
images that are displayed in a sequence. The animation can be
used effectively for attracting attention. Animation also makes a
presentation light and attractive.
