They will learn about the tools used for creating a variety of applications requiring high levels of interactivity and navigation. Advanced techniques in scripting and handling of events and objects, including features such as linear and property lists, are studied along with the construction of objects and behaviors. In addition to performing tasks previously learned, students will work in a project team to deliver a large-scale interactive multimedia product. Additional tasks will include requirement analysis, formal proposals, project scheduling and estimates, budgets, risk analysis and recommendations, database management, evaluation and signoff. In this course, students will build on their knowledge of digital media creation and distribution.
Emphasis is placed on interactive delivery platforms as well as professional production techniques.
Students will create a wide variety of digital content, and manipulate that content for delivery on CD-ROM and the Web. Students will understand the bandwidth requirements for video distribution, and implement streaming technologies. Animation and Modelling 2 Modelling and Animation techniques for use in interactive multimedia products are studied in detail, focusing on new technologies, the use of advanced tools and techniques and the application of creative design principles. An introduction to 3D software is combined with advanced programming logic in order to produce high-end animated objects for inclusion in Web and CD applications. Advanced animation and modelling techniques are studied, and the students will combine 3D models and animations into various applications.
