Disadvantages of Graphics in Multimedia

 Take longer to download


 Require the use of plug-ins that the user may not have
or be able to install
The Basic Elements of
Multimedia
Animation
 It is a series of graphics that create an illusion
of motion.
 Entertainment multimedia titles in general, and
children‟s titles specifically, rely heavily on
animation.

scenes in motion.
The Basic Elements of
Multimedia
The use of Video
 The embedding of video in multimedia applications is a powerful
way to convey information which can incorporate a personal

easily edited.
 The video is stored as a standard computer file.
 Software motion video does not require specialized
hardware for playback.
 Digital video requires neither a video board in the computer
nor an external device (which adds extra costs and
complexity) such as a videodisc player.
 Long-lasting.
The Basic Elements of
Multimedia
Disadvantages of Digital Video
 Requires large storage capacity devices.
 Copies can be made illegally.
 Need fast computer system for playback and capture.
 Requires knowledge of digital compression
technology.
The Basic Elements of
Multimedia
Sound
 Sound is the best way to attract
attention.
 Often audio provides the only
effective way to convey an idea,

Categorization

Two types of Multimedia presentation :


Linear Non-linear
Presentation Interactive
Categorization

Linear active content progresses


without any navigation control for the
viewer such as a cinema
presentation.
Categorization

Non-linear content offers user


interactivity to control progress as
used with a computer game or
used in self-paced computer
based training.
Hypermedia

Information is linked and cross-referenced


in many different ways and is widely
available to end users.

Hypertext means a database in which


information (text) has been organised
nonlinearly. The database consists of
nodes and links between nodes
Hypermedia

 A link is defined by source and


destination nodes, and by an anchor in
the source node.
 Two types of link:
 Internal link (local)

 External link (global)


World Wide Web

 World Wide Web (WWW) is a global


hypermedia system on Internet.
 It can be described as wide-area
hypermedia information retrieval initiative
aiming to give universal access to a large
universe of documents.
World Wide Web

 To use WWW the user needs a browser


(eg. Internet Explorer, Firefox) that are
