Unit 1: Multimedia

Creating original art notes
Illustrations, graphics, buttons, and icons are created using the prototype screens as a guide.
Digitizing art

Existing photographs, illustrations, and graphics are digitized for use in an electronic medium.
Electronically generated art as well as digitized art must be prepped for use; number of colours,
palettes, resolution, format, and size are addressed.
the 3D Modeling and animation

The 3D artwork is created, rendered, and then prepared for use in the authoring tool. The 3D
animations require their own storyboards and schedules.
shooting and Digitizing video

The edited scripts are used to plan the identify location, performers, time schedules and budget,
then the shoot is scheduled.

recording and Digitizing audio
Similarly, the edited scripts (or a composer, if using music) are used to plan the budget, performers
and time schedules after which the recording session is scheduled.

authoring
All the pieces come together in the authoring tool. Functionality is programmed, and 2D animation
is developed. From here, the final working product is created.
proofreading
Every word on the screen is proofread and checked for consistency of formatting. In addition,
the proofreader reviews all video and audio against the edited scripts.
Quality Control

Quality control goes on throughout the process. The storyboards are helpful for checking the
sequencing.

The final step checks should be done for the overall content functionality and

usability of the product.

1.2.3 post production
testing

The product is tested on multiple computers and monitors.
Mastering
Mastering can be as simple as writing a CD-ROM or floppy disk. Or it can be as complex as sending
the files to a service that will create a pre-master from which the master is made.
archiving
The original files, including audio, video, and the native software formats, are archived for future
upgrades or revisions.
Duplication

The duplicates are created from the original and packaged accordingly.
