Objective Interactive multimedia title development cycle. The creation of content for use in multimedia productions is limited only by creativity and technology. File formats are constantly changing to provide superior meta-data capabilities that can be exploited to generate interactivity.
Compression algorithms dictate file size, which in turn dictates quality.
The process involved in compression, creation, manipulation, application, and delivery of multimedia titles is an interlinked process. Understanding and applying this process is the goal of this course. The technology behind the creativity is emphasized throughout the lectures. Techniques and concepts learnt during the course are made universal so that changing formats do not make the learning obsolete. Final grade will be based upon the total points received, the highest total in the class, and the average of the class.
