3. Define Multimedia
Multimedia contains multiple elements such
as text, image, audio and videos used in a
single platform.
Static Elements – Text and image
Dynamic Elements – Audio, Video ,Animation
4. Components of Multimedia
Static Elements : They are fixed and non
movable but shares information to the other.
Dynamic Elements : They are changeable
and motional, and shares a range of
information
5. Text Elements
Two types
Static Text : In static text the words will
either
give information or support an image or
an video .
Hyper Text :the text and the links
between the nodes, which defines the
paths the user need to follow for the
text access in non-sequential ways.
6. Images
Raster Images : Simple Matrix of tiny dots
called pixels, Merged to form a bitmap
images or raster images. E.g.: 1bit = 2 colors
Vector Images : Drawing Elements ,Such as
rectangle, circle and square.
Uses compression techniques to reduce the
size of images and speed up transfer.
GIF, TIFF and JPEG
7. Animation
Two Dimensional : X & Y axis
Three Dimensional : X,Y & Z axis
Purely focus on live image.
16 frames – Smoothness
25 frames – Natural Looking
Animation Two Types :
Path Animation : Moving object with constant
background E.g. : Cartoon Character or Games
Frame Animation : Simultaneous Moving of object
and background changes drastically . E.g. : Movies
8. Sound
Written Text replaced with audible or hearable
transfer of information, with music and with added
special effect.
Decibels is the measurement of volume, the
pressure level of sound.
MIDI (Musical Instrumental Digital Identifier)
Tools for synthesizing the sound.
Digital Audio
A sample of sound is taken and stored every nth
fraction of a second in form of bit and bytes.
Quality – Sampling Rate -bit depth, resolution and
sample size.
9. Video
The display of recorded events or scene
Two Types : Analog ,Digital
Analog Video : the video data’s are stored in
any non-computer media like video tape,
laserdisc, film.
Composite and Component Analogue Video :
brightness, color, and synchronization combined
into one signal.
color blending, low clarity and high generational
loss, Betamax and VHS.
10. File Formats for
Multimedia
Text Formats
RTF(Rich Text
Format),1987,Microsoft,Document
Interchange
Plain Text : Opened , read and edited by
most editors.
Notepad(Windows) ,Gedit & Nano(Unix and
Linux)
conveying an e-mail.
11. Image Formats
TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) high
quality output, image compression and
Comfortable moving large files.
BMP (Bitmap) quite large and
uncompressed, high quality occupies large
size.
DIB (Device Independent Bitmap) similar to
BMP, allows the files to be displayed on a
variety of devices
12. Image Formats
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) compressed image format,
best suitable for graphics that uses only limited colors, online
color photos - 13-bit Color
JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) maximum image
compression.
Lossy compression technique - loses some of the data required for the
image reconstruction.
works good with photographs, naturalistic artwork
TGA (Tagra)
first popular format for high resolution images, Most of the video-
capture boards
PNG (Portable Network Graphics) less loss, portable and well
compressed storage. works good with online viewing
applications like worldwide web
13. Digital Audio File Formats
WAV (Waveform Audio File Format) most popular
audio file format in windows for storing uncompressed
sound files, can also be converted to other file formats.
MP3 (MPEG Layer-3 Format) MPEG Layer-3 format
for storing and downloading music, one-tenth the size
of an equivalent WAV file.
OGG A free, open source container format, better
streaming and evolving at high end quality digital
multimedia.
AIFF (Audio Interchange File Format) standard audio
file format used by Apple, Like wav format.
14. Digital Audio File Formats
WMA (Windows Media Audio) windows
media audio format owned by Microsoft and
designed with Digital Right Management
(DRM) abilities for copyright protection.
RA (Real Audio Format) designed for
streaming audio over the Internet, usually
stored as a computer file in computer’s hard
drive or CD/DVD.
15. Digital Video File Formats
AVI (Audio/Video Interleave) sound and picture
elements are stored in alternate interleaved.
MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group) generating
digital video and audio compression under the
International Standards Organization(ISO) By group of
people.
MPEG-1 - Video CD and MP3 based
MPEG-2 - Digital Television set top boxes and DVD
MPEG-4 – Multimedia and Mobile Web
MPEG-7 - search of audio and visual content
MPEG-21 – Multimedia Framework –started on
2000,standards for digital video and audio compression.
