2. LESSON 1:
TEXT INFORMATION AND MEDIA
 Text Information refers to a certain presentation of information or idea whether
hand-written , printed , or screen display. It can be written using the Roman
alphabet or any kind of language that is suited to a specific group of readers. It is
mainly created by authors , writers , contributor , editor , publisher , bloggers ,
columnist , data encoder , and lay out and graphic artist.

meaning or message to the readers. On the other hand, it varies depending
platforms it will be shown such in formal ones like magazines , newspaper , books
and advertisements and the informal ones like blog , e-mails , text message , and
other social media context.

3. How text information is produced?
Text information is produced through the following steps:
 The writer of the text first thinks of the topic to write.
 The writer collects necessary details about the chosen topic.
 The writer outlines those details and starts to create a draft of the text.
 The writer reviews the initial draft until it is done into a full text.
 The writer passes the text to the editor for the proof-reading and editing. Then it
will be given to the publisher for the printing of the text.

4. How to access and evaluate text information?
1. Accuracy. It refers to the correctness of the text presented on the media. Be sure that
the information written, printed or screen-displayed on its is factual and true. A well-
researched information is what it requires.

of the text , to convey a message. Be sure that the language used suited to the level of
the readers in terms of their age , interest , or educational background.

you are targeting a certain group of readers. If you intend to have children as your
target audience , make it sure that the texts are amusing and creative. If you intend to
reach out for academic field , be sure that the presentation looks scholarly impressive.

5. DESIGN PRINCIPLES AND ELEMENTS OF
TEXT INFORMATION AND MEDIA
1. Emphasis – Use different size , weight , color , contrast and orientation to present
text with grater value.
2. Appropriateness – Using the right font , content tone of presentation based on the
target audience or event.

illustrations , or digital reproduction of the data pertains to.
 Visual Media is interpreted using primarily what human see. It plays a big role in
advertising , art , communication , education , business and engineering. Visual

and introduces us to various cultures
in the world.
2. its is very engaging for the
participants.
3. It captures the diverse perspectives
of the audience.

in understanding the meaning of the
material.
3. It requires complex presentation.
4. Participants might pay more
attention to the graphics.

9. LESSON 3:
AUDIO INFORMATION AND MEDIA
 Audio Information refers to a form of media that uses recorded audio materials for
communicating , transferring or delivering information through its means of sound.
These are the materials or sound that are transmitted , produced or received
through high fidelity waves that are heard through certain equipment.

10. Types of Audio information
a) Radio Broadcast – live or recorded audio sent through radio waves to reach a wide
audience.
b) Music – vocal and/or instrumental sounds combined in such a way as to produce beauty
of form , harmony , and expression of emotion. It composed and performed for many
purposes , ranging from aesthetic pleasure , religious or ceremonial purposes , or as an
entertainment product.

e) Audio Podcast – a digital audio or video file or recording , usually part of a themed
series that can be downloaded from a website to a media player or computer.

11. Different ways of storing audio media
a) Tape – magnetic tape on which sound can be recorded
b) CD – a plastic-fabricated , circular medium for recording , storing , and playing back
audio , video , and computer data.
c) USB drive – an external flash drive , small enough to carry on a key ring that can be
used with any computer that has USB port.
d) Memory Card – (aka flash memory card or storage card) is a small storage medium
used to a store data such as text , picture , audio , and video , for use on small ,
portable , or remote computing divices.
e) Computer hard drive – secondary storage devices for storing audio files.
f) Internet/cloud – websites or file resipotories for retrieving audio files , and more
precisely the filesare stored in some datacenter full of servers that is connected to
the internet

12. Elements of Sound Design
 The objects or things that we have to work with:
a) Dialogue – speech , conversation , voice-over.
b) Waterfall – as first elements fades out , the second elements begins at full volume.
Better for voice transitions that for.
c) Sound Effects – any sound other than music or dialogue.
d) Music – vocal or instrument sounds (or both) combined in such a way as to
produce beauty of form , harmony , and expression of emotion.
e) Silence – absence of audio or sound.

13. Principles of Sound Design
 The techniques for combining the different elements or objects:
a) Mixing refers to the combination , balanced ,and control of multiple sound
elements.
b) Pace refers to time control , editing , and order of events linear , non-linear , or
multi-linear.
c) Transition is how get from one segment or element to another.
d) Stereo Imaging is the use of left and right channel depth.
