Study Notes

Multimedia Basics

  • Multimedia is a combination of text, graphic, sound, animation, and video delivered interactively to the user by electronic or digitally manipulated means.
  • The main purpose of multimedia is to provide an interactive experience to the user.

Multimedia Elements

  • The element of multimedia described as a two-dimensional figure or illustration is a graphic.
  • In multimedia, 'text' refers to a sequence of characters that convey information.
  • The main purpose of graphics in multimedia is to provide visual representation and enhance the user experience.

Graphics in Multimedia

  • Raster (bitmap) graphics are resolution dependent and have a main advantage of being able to display detailed and complex images.
  • Software useful for creating bitmap images includes Adobe Photoshop.
  • Vector graphics are resolution independent and have a characteristic of being scalable without losing quality.
  • A common disadvantage of vector graphics is that they may not be suitable for displaying complex images.
  • The primary difference between pictures and images in the context of multimedia is that pictures are usually raster graphics, while images can be either raster or vector graphics.
  • Raster graphics represent an image as a rectangular grid of colored squares.
  • The distinguishing feature of drawing programs in the context of multimedia graphics is that they use vectors to create images.
  • In multimedia applications, the main purpose of graphical images is to provide visual representation and enhance the user experience.
  • The key difference between draw-type graphics and raster (bitmap) graphics in multimedia is that draw-type graphics use vectors to create images, while raster graphics use a grid of pixels.

Interactive Multimedia

  • In interactive multimedia, users have control over the content being displayed.
  • Authoring tools, such as Adobe Flash, are designed to merge multimedia elements into a project and provide user interaction.

Video and Animation
