Journal Entry 10 – Multimedia Data Types

Posted at 8:04 pm under Inspiring People of Faith




“A multimedia system is an information system that combines at least TWO to THREE types of media, such as text, hypertext, audio, images, animations and video”.

1. Provide a description and an example of each type of media listed above.

Text-Text is basically writing tools in letters e.g microsoft word and writing.

Hypertext-Hypertext is text which will transpor you to another domain/website

they are also known as hyperlinks. An example is this website

http://www.parraeels.com.au/

This text here will take you to the Parramatta Eels website.

Audio-This is basically the sound or what you here. It could be a

radio recording or a music track in a powerpoint etc.

Images-These are pictures of important things which can provide information

which can not be used in text. It can be used to show proof or evidence.

This picture of the eels Jersey could be used on a blog if one was writing about

a new jersey to show evidence. It can also be used to point out things in the past etc.

Animations-Animations are pictures with motion. They can be also thought of as short

movies. Animations are also not an effective source in presentations as they distract the

audience from the speaker. An example of an animation is this one of the Cross:

Videos – Videos are films/movies which are 24 pictures per a second.

Like pictures videos can be used to produce evidence and show visual

to text. Videos can also be used to make decisions such as the Video

Referee and the Third Umpire. This here is a video of Jarryd Hayne

scoring his debut try for N.S.W on halftime.

2. Outline three problems of the design of the powerpoint slide.

 Biography
 1. Too much writing in small space. (dot points easier)

2. Writing, small (20 preferable)

3. Information too long, summarising notes and then speaking and expanding is better.
