- What made you decide to take this course? What are your learning goals this term?
I wanted to take this course because I’m currently studying healthcare technologies, but I have an interest in marketing, event planning, and graphic design – I believe that this course will help me pursue different forms of media that can be used for these purposes.
- Provide an example (uploaded, linked or embedded in your WordPress blog posting) of:
- Interactive media:
An example of interactive media could be a new style of TV called “Interactive TV/Films”. Examples of this that can be found on Netflix are “Black Mirror: Bandersnatch”, and “You vs. Wild”. These films act similar to the old style of “choose your own adventure” books, where the viewer can interact with the choices made in the story, and can affect the outcome of the story. These are similar to video games, but have less moments of these interactive moments compared to video games, and usually just have a multiple choice screen.
- Multimedia:
Multimedia is taking more than one form of media and combining them. An example of multimedia could be as simple as a TV show, as the user can get visuals, audio, and possibly even text with the use of closed captioning!
- Interactive Multimedia:
Takes more than one form of media and combining them, while changing outputs to fit inputs from a user. This is the crossover of the aforementioned Interactive Media, and Multimedia, with an example of interactive multimedia being Meta’s Quest 2 system – this VR system allows a user to receive VR visuals, and audio, while interacting with the media similar to a video game, or media browser, among other uses.
