 Enable users to create and deliver business presentations
in the form of the slide show.
 Each major heading is the beginning of a new slide.
heading
16
1. Presentation software
 Templates are used to determine how the
heads and subheads are formatted and
displayed over backgrounds, including: (etc
PowerPoint)
 position
 size
 font
 style
 color
17
Example: PowerPoint Interface
templates
Style and format
18
2. Tools for creating production
 Typically oriented toward producing content that is more ambitious than
the slide-show level
 (more interactive & dynamic)
 Usually integrate all types of' multimedia data into a multitrack timeline
that determines the evolution of events
 Interactivity takes the form of conditional
branching (multiple linking) that can make
navigation decisions based on user input
and other conditions
 Production software creates dynamic
content
 EXAMPLE: mTropolis / AppleMedia
Tool / MediaForge
19
3. Interactive training and education tools
 To create education or training content.
 Designed primarily to present information in an Interactive
book.
 Multimedia-oriented programming languages such as Visual
Basic represent another authoring alternative.
 Offers the higher flexibility, performance speed and power
 Example: Macromedia Flash, Authorware & Director
20
Flash Interface
21
Director Interface
22

23
Types of Authoring Tools
1. Card and page based
2. Icon based
3. Time based
4. Object based
24
1. Card and page Based
 Cards are developed that have different
elements associated with them.
 Cards are put in stack.
 Cards or pages combine to make up a book.
 example of authoring tools
 HyperCard (Mac)
 ToolBook (Mac / Windows)
25
2. Icon Based
 Icons are gathered along the line.
 Provide visual development.
 Flow chart is created to show the organisation of
icons or elements:
 including activity list, results and done with dragging the
icon/elements along the lines
 each Icon represents a particular event – button,
graphics, text, video
 examples of authoring tools
 Authorware(Mac/Windows)
 IconAuthor (Windows)
26
2. Icon Based
27
3. Time Based
 The most popular used.
 Using “timeline” for organizing activities
 Also using “framing” – timely adjusted depending
on the frame size
 Example:- Macromedia Director / Flash
(Mac/Windows)
28
3. Time Based
Macromedia Director
Macromedia Flash
29
4. Object Based
 Support environment based on object.
 Every object is modified using properties &
modifiers
 The environment is based on ‘Hierarchy’ (section
and sub-section).
 Examples of the tools :
 mTropolis (Mac/Windows)
 AppleMedia Tool (Mac/Windows)
 MediaForge (Windows)
30
4. Object Based
31

Multimedia Authoring Metaphors
 Authoring is the process of creating multimedia
applications. Most authoring programs use one of
several authoring metaphors, also known as
authoring paradigm.
47
a. Scripting Language metaphor:
The idea here is to use a special language to enable
interactivity and allow conditional, jumps, loops,
functions macros e g. . open script language
b. Slide Show metaphor:
Slide shows are by default a linear presentation. Although
tools exist to perform jumps in slide shows, very few
practitioners use them. e.g. Power Point, Image Q.
48
C. Hierarchical Metaphor:
Here user controllable elements are organized
into a tree structure. Such a metaphor is
often used in menu driven programs.
d. Iconic/Flow control metaphor:
Graphical icons are available in toolbox, and
authoring proceeds a flowchart with icons
attached. e.g. Authorware by Macromedia.

  • 13. 13 Features of Authoring Tools 4. A series of figures  List of images / objects in the project  Information about objects figures
  • 14. 14 Categories of Authoring Tools  Can be categorized into 1. Presentation software 2. Tools for creating production 3. Interactive training and education  Some authoring tools can fit into more than one category.
  • 15. 15 1. Presentation software  Enable users to create and deliver business presentations in the form of the slide show.  Each major heading is the beginning of a new slide. heading
  • 16. 16 1. Presentation software  Templates are used to determine how the heads and subheads are formatted and displayed over backgrounds, including: (etc PowerPoint)  position  size  font  style  color
  • 18. 18 2. Tools for creating production  Typically oriented toward producing content that is more ambitious than the slide-show level  (more interactive & dynamic)  Usually integrate all types of' multimedia data into a multitrack timeline that determines the evolution of events  Interactivity takes the form of conditional branching (multiple linking) that can make navigation decisions based on user input and other conditions  Production software creates dynamic content  EXAMPLE: mTropolis / AppleMedia Tool / MediaForge
  • 19. 19 3. Interactive training and education tools  To create education or training content.  Designed primarily to present information in an Interactive book.  Multimedia-oriented programming languages such as Visual Basic represent another authoring alternative.  Offers the higher flexibility, performance speed and power  Example: Macromedia Flash, Authorware & Director
  • 23. 23 Types of Authoring Tools 1. Card and page based 2. Icon based 3. Time based 4. Object based
  • 24. 24 1. Card and page Based  Cards are developed that have different elements associated with them.  Cards are put in stack.  Cards or pages combine to make up a book.  example of authoring tools  HyperCard (Mac)  ToolBook (Mac / Windows)
  • 25. 25 2. Icon Based  Icons are gathered along the line.  Provide visual development.  Flow chart is created to show the organisation of icons or elements:  including activity list, results and done with dragging the icon/elements along the lines  each Icon represents a particular event – button, graphics, text, video  examples of authoring tools  Authorware(Mac/Windows)  IconAuthor (Windows)
  • 27. 27 3. Time Based  The most popular used.  Using “timeline” for organizing activities  Also using “framing” – timely adjusted depending on the frame size  Example:- Macromedia Director / Flash (Mac/Windows)
  • 28. 28 3. Time Based Macromedia Director Macromedia Flash
  • 29. 29 4. Object Based  Support environment based on object.  Every object is modified using properties & modifiers  The environment is based on ‘Hierarchy’ (section and sub-section).  Examples of the tools :  mTropolis (Mac/Windows)  AppleMedia Tool (Mac/Windows)  MediaForge (Windows)
  • 31. 31 Authoring tools capability • Authoring tools should possess the following capabilities: 1. Interactivity 2. Playback 3. Editing 4. Programming / Scripting 5. Cross Platform 6. Internet Playability 7. Delivery/Distribution 8. Project organization
  • 32. 32 Authoring Capabilities 1. Interactivity  Simple Branching  Ability to jump to any part of the product  Eg:- by mouse click, keyboard input  Conditional Branching  Ability to jump to any part of products if agreed to certain condition (statement IF-THEN)  Structured Language  complex programming to enable the interactivity and navigation
  • 33. 33 Authoring Capabilities 2. Playback  Ability to see and to test the ongoing or the completed project. Playback (timeline / movie tester)
  • 34. 34 Authoring Capabilities 3. Editing  generally, authoring tools are capable on text and image editing  capable on doing other editing too, depending on the software used Editing
  • 35. 35 Authoring Capabilities 4. Programming /Scripting  Programming used for flexibility.  Authoring tools offers an easier and less time consuming to develop:-  Visual Programming - Using icon, button, drag & drop graphic, audio .  Eg: Authorware  Scripting - programming language for authoring tools.  Eg: Director = LINGO, Flash = ActionScript  Support basic programming language - C, BASIC  to make it more flexible  Document Development Tools  Authoring tools that able to merge documents, indexing, search engine and linking

  • 46. 46 Multimedia Authoring Metaphors  Authoring is the process of creating multimedia applications. Most authoring programs use one of several authoring metaphors, also known as authoring paradigm.
  • 47. 47 a. Scripting Language metaphor: The idea here is to use a special language to enable interactivity and allow conditional, jumps, loops, functions macros e g. . open script language b. Slide Show metaphor: Slide shows are by default a linear presentation. Although tools exist to perform jumps in slide shows, very few practitioners use them. e.g. Power Point, Image Q.
  • 48. 48 C. Hierarchical Metaphor: Here user controllable elements are organized into a tree structure. Such a metaphor is often used in menu driven programs. d. Iconic/Flow control metaphor: Graphical icons are available in toolbox, and authoring proceeds a flowchart with icons attached. e.g. Authorware by Macromedia.
