computer presentations- one of the types of multimedia projects that are used in advertising, during speeches, at conferences and meetings, are used in the classroom in the process of explaining new material. When creating presentations, multimedia technologies are used that allow you to simultaneously use various ways of presenting information: numbers, text, graphics, animation, video and sound.

An important feature of multimedia technology is its interactivity , that is, that the user is given an active role in the dialogue with the computer. The graphical interface of multimedia projects usually contains control elements (buttons, text boxes, and so on).

Recently, many multimedia software products have been created. These are encyclopedias from various areas of life (history, art, geography, biology, music) and training programs (foreign languages, physics, chemistry) and so on.

You should start learning new material by viewing presentations created earlier and pay attention not only to the semantic content of the presentations, but also to design, animation, multimedia effects, and sound accompaniment.

If you are preparing some kind of extensive report, you need to keep in mind that its perception “by ear” may be too difficult for some listeners, and accompanying it with the necessary notes, drawings, graphs that you will complete on the board during the report, may stretch the report too much in time. In this case, it is often useful to create a summary of the report and material for distribution or demonstration to the audience in advance. All this is called a presentation, and you, most likely, have already used it more than once. A multimedia presentation is the preparation of such material using certain software. On personal computers running Windows, Microsoft PowerPoint and Lotus Freelance Graphics are most commonly used for this purpose. The basic techniques for working with these programs are very similar, and all of them will be demonstrated below using MS PowerPoint as an example. With this program, we can prepare a presentation using slides, which can then be printed on transparencies, paper, 35mm slides, or simply shown on a computer screen or projection screen or on the Internet, we can also create a summary of the report and material for distribution to listeners . The presentation can be used as an accompanying material for a report, tutorial or commercial, etc.

PowerPoint creates a presentation file that has a name extension PPT or PPS and contains a set of slides. The program provides the user with a large number of presentation templates on various topics. Such templates contain slides designed in a certain way. In the slide field, we can insert our text, graphics, as well as a table and a chart. In addition, we can change the artwork of any presentation template to suit your taste. This will change only the appearance of the presentation, not its content. And, finally, we have enough time and feel the designer's abilities in ourselves, we can start working on a presentation from scratch - PowerPoint has all the means for this.

Presentations can be created for any school discipline or class hours and then demonstrated in the classroom using a multimedia projector.

Basic definitions on the topic:

- computer presentation- a set of slides united thematically using multimedia effects.
- Slide- electronic presentation page.
- interactivity- the ability for a person to control the progress of the presentation while viewing it.
- Hyperlink- any slide object (picture, title, text, etc.), which, when used (mouse click), moves to another slide, object, file, Internet page, etc.
- Animation- the movement of any object within the slide.
- Project- Creation of a multimedia presentation.
- Multimedia- "multi-media", various types of information (sound, text, video, animations, etc.)

Basic multimedia tools





Multimedia is a complex concept. Translated from Latin - "multi-environment" (Multum - many, Media - environment). On the one hand, it implies a special type of documents, and on the other hand, a special class of software and hardware.

Multimedia documents differ from ordinary ones in that, in addition to traditional text and graphic data, they can contain sound and musical objects, animated graphics (animation), and video fragments. Multimedia software is software designed to create and/or play multimedia documents and objects.

multimedia hardware is the hardware needed to create, store and play multimedia software. Historically, this includes a sound card, a CD-ROM drive, and speakers (or headphones). This group of equipment is also called the basic multimedia kit. This means that multimedia is a complex of software and hardware that allows a person to interact with a computer using various media, such as sound, video, text, graphics, animation, etc.

In recent years, the multimedia hardware class has developed rapidly. So, it includes devices for processing television signals and playing television programs (TV tuners), hardware for processing compressed video information (MPEG decoders), drives for playing digital video discs (DVD), equipment for recording compact discs (CD-R and CD-RW) and much more.

With the presence of multimedia hardware (at least in the amount of the basic multimedia kit), the Windows operating system allows you to create, store and use multimedia objects and documents. Software tools designed for this purpose are in the category Programs Standard Entertainment.

The main standard multimedia tools include programs: Volume Control, Laser Player, Media Player and Sound Recorder.

Program Volume control is the basic volume control of the entire computer system. This means that it plays a central role, and all volume adjustments of other programs or hardware operate only within the limits initially set by the Volume Control. After setting the Volume Control, an icon is created on the display panel. Clicking the left mouse button on this icon opens a master controller that affects all sound devices installed on the computer. By clicking the right mouse button, you can open an extended window in which you can set the volume, stereo balance and tone settings for each of the devices separately.

Program Laser player designed to play music audio CDs using a CD-ROM drive. The program allows you to control the playback mode (continuous playback, random playback, introductory playback) of audio tracks, has on-screen controls that correspond to the controls of CD players, and allows you to create and edit playlists.

Program Media Player can also be used to play audio CDs, although it doesn't have as many features as Laser Player (in particular, it doesn't have playlist tools). On the other hand, it is highly versatile and allows you to play not only sound recordings, but also video recordings presented in numerous formats. Automatically connects the codecs required to play compressed recordings. In cases where multimedia objects are found in electronic text documents, they are reproduced by this standard Windows tool.

Sound recording program designed for self-creation of audio files. The audio source can be a microphone, CD-ROM drive, or an external device. The program has graphical controls equivalent to those of a conventional home tape recorder. The created sound files can undergo limited editing with the imposition of some effects (changing the speed of the sound recording, volume, the "Echo" effect, reversing the sound recording). The program allows you to create small audio clips that can be used in sound schemes for designing system events. It is also used as an OLE server when it is necessary to insert a sound object into a text document.

Examples of software systems that widely use multimedia tools are presentation preparation systems, training systems, including computer simulators and virtual laboratories, computer encyclopedias, audio and video libraries, and games.

The main objects of multimedia at present are recordings of sound and dynamic images presented in various digital formats.

Almost all software systems that use multimedia objects are interactive, that is, they conduct an intensive dialogue with the user, so the possibility of not only high-quality, but also fast sound and image reproduction is very important for them.

Programs that serve to play multimedia objects are widely used. Such programs are called players or players (from the English "player").

Consolidation of new material.

We perform the following steps.

1) Open the Volume Control, set the normal sound parameters.

2) Open the Laser Player program and listen to music from a CD through headphones.

3) Using the Universal Player, view any video files from the hard drive.

4) Open the Sound Recorder program, record your voice using a microphone, save it as a file on the Desktop under the name Training. View adding various effects to the audio file (changing the speed of the sound, adding an echo, reversing the sound)

5) Take CDs containing photographs, pictures, drawings (preferably in different formats), sound files, video and animation files. Learn to view all these files, copy pictures into a text document.

Independent work.

Complete the following task:

1) Create folders Pictures, Music, Videos on the Desktop.

2) Copy from the CD to the Pictures folder - 3 photos, to the Music folder - 3 sound files, to the Video folder - 3 animation files.

3) In the Microsoft Word environment, create a photo gallery from any photos and captions to them (about 10 pieces). Photos are taken from the issued CD.

4) Record 3 sound files using the Sound Recorder program and a microphone. In the first, the concept of multimedia is spelled out, in the second - the standard multimedia tools are listed, in the third - the main features of multimedia. The first file is the normal sound, the second file is with increased speed and echo, the third file is the reversal of the sound. Save files as Sound1, Sound2, Sound3.

5) Delete files and folders created on the Desktop.





After studying this topic, you will learn and repeat:

How has the Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 environment changed from previous versions;
- what areas of tasks are provided for in this program and what is their purpose;
- What are the graphical features of Microsoft PowerPoint 2003;
- what are the possibilities of autotuning this program.

Rice. 4.1. Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 interface

General view of the interface

Rice. 4.2. Quick Help Question and Answer Example

Microsoft PowerPoint 2003, like other Microsoft Office applications, has a standard interface that includes the program's main menu, toolbar, and workspace (Fig. 4.1). About the features of the interface, which appeared in the new version of PowerPoint 2003, will be discussed later.

Quick Help

The menu bar now has a field Enter a question (see Fig. 4.1). By typing a question in it, you can view a list of help topics that may contain the information you need. This is a faster and more convenient way to access the help system than the online assistant provides.

Let's say you want to know how to save a presentation (Figure 4.2). Instead of the text Enter a question, type the keywords to save the presentation and press the Enter key. Almost immediately, a list of links to sections containing the necessary reference information will appear.

Task areas

Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 introduced new areas of the main window called task panes. They are displayed in the main window when the application starts. The list of PowerPoint task areas is shown in fig. 4.3.

The task pane contains the most frequently performed operations in Microsoft Power Point and commands that can be called without interrupting work.

Consider some of the areas presented in the list.

♦ Clip Collection task area (Fig. 4.4) allows you to search for images by various parameters (by keywords, by file type), view collections of graphic files, etc. New clips, user-friendly interface, the ability to search for clips on the Internet is just some of the updates.

♦ Task Pane The slide layout is used to organize layouts. When you select an item in the task pane, the appearance of the presentation slides is immediately updated.

Rice. 4.3. List of PowerPoint Task Panes

Rice. 4.4. Task Pane Clip Art Gallery

♦ The Slide Design task pane displays the design templates used in the current presentation, the most recently used templates, and all templates available for use, including on the web. Design templates can be viewed at a large scale directly in the task pane. To do this, just click on the arrow icon on the selected template and select the Show large thumbnails command in the menu that opens. In the new version of Microsoft PowerPoint, a design template can be applied to one or more selected slides. To select templates not shown in the task pane, click the Browse button at the bottom of the task pane.

The Slide Design task area also offers a variety of color schemes and animation schemes to suit different audiences, themes, and materials. Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 allows you to apply pre-made sets of animation and slide transition effects to individual slides or to the entire presentation. There are new animation effects, additional timing controls, and new object movement paths listed in the Animation Effects Execution Order list. Animation effects are divided into categories according to complexity: simple, medium, complex.

Working with graphics

Microsoft Office XP applications use Enhanced Graphics (GDI+). This gives shapes and WordArt objects smooth outlines and adjustable transparency levels with color blending. Drawings remain sharp and clear when resized.

There are additional possibilities when working with drawings. For example, when inserting pictures from files on your hard disk, you can select and paste multiple pictures at the same time.

For images in your presentation, you can select the desired resolution depending on where they will be used (for example, on web pages on the Internet or in printed documents), and specify other options to achieve a better ratio between image quality and file size (the Compress to Picture Format window).

Drawings, including raster images, can be rotated and mirrored.

In the new version of Microsoft PowerPoint 2003, you can save a background texture or slide background image as one of the graphic file types, making it easier to reuse those graphic elements.

The program also includes a collection of common org charts that you can add text, animation effects, and various formatting styles to. Org charts now use drawing tools to make them easier to edit.

Photo Album Mode

In Microsoft PowerPoint 2003, of particular interest is the new presentation creation mode - Photo Album (Insert Picture Create Photo Album command). With its help, the ability to quickly and easily move photos and drawings from a hard drive, scanner or digital camera into a presentation is realized.

The photo album has special layout options: various frames, captions for pictures, slide titles, and many others (Fig. 4.5).

Rice. 4.5. Photo album settings window

Automatic setting

Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 introduces new AutoFit features. Depending on the size of the frame, the text options may automatically change. For example, if long text is to be placed in a frame, the font size is automatically reduced. Autofitting within each frame can be turned on or off to give you more control over the process (Tools AutoCorrect Options AutoFormat As You Type).

The layout of the slide is automatically changed to accommodate pictures, charts, organization charts, and other embedded elements. When you select a new slide layout, Microsoft PowerPoint automatically rearranges the elements already on the slide to match the new layout.

To make it easier to align frames, shapes, and pictures in Microsoft PowerPoint, you can display a grid when you draw. The distance between grid lines can be changed.

Preview

In Microsoft PowerPoint 2003, you can preview your presentation before printing. Special preview options let you preview and print slides, notes, and other types of handouts.

Safety

Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 introduced a number of security measures:

♦ The presentation can be password protected. A password must be entered to change the content of the presentation, otherwise it will be read-only.
♦ If the application encounters an error or stops responding, open documents can be restored the next time the program is launched. These documents will be displayed in the Document Recovery task pane.
♦ Application crash information can be sent to your organization's information technology department or to Microsoft.

Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 Presentation Program

Practical work
"Introducing the Basic Concepts of Microsoft PowerPoint 2003
and techniques for creating and designing presentations

By completing this topic, you will learn:

How to create a presentation using PowerPoint;
- Format and edit slides.

Exercise: Designing a presentation. Application of design templates.

As the topic of the first presentation, we will take an electronic illustration of a speech concerning the structure of building a course of lectures on the study of Microsoft Office.

This presentation preparation process will have to be broken down into two stages:

  1. direct development of the presentation, i.e. the design of each slide;
  2. demonstration, i.e. the process of showing finished slides, which may be accompanied by lecturer's explanations, some graphic notes during the demonstration.

Presentation development

First you need to formulate the topic of the future presentation, at least roughly determine the number of slides and their structure. Consider slide design options.

Let's prepare six slides.

On the first one, we will reflect the name of the course and its duration (title page of the presentation).
On the second - graphically display the structure of the course.
On the rest - the content of the classes, respectively, by topic:

Microsoft Word;
Microsoft Excel;
Microsoft PowerPoint 2003;

Organization of work with documentation.

Create a presentation

slide number 1

Start PowerPoint 2003. Start-Programs-PowerPoint 2003. You will see the PowerPoint 2003 window.

In the Create New Presentation selection box group, select New Presentation.

The next step will be the appearance of the Slide Layout window, which presents various slide layout options (Figure 1). Choose the very first type - Title Slide.

Finally, the first slide will appear in front of you with markup for entering text (placeholders).

Placeholders are dotted outline boxes that appear when you create a new slide. These frames serve as placeholders for objects such as the slide title, text, charts, tables, organization charts, and graphics. To add text to a placeholder, just click, and to add a given object, double-click. However, the white background does not impress.

Start your work by choosing a color scheme for the slide. PowerPoint 2003 provides the ability to take advantage of design templates that allow you to create presentations in a specific style.

The design template contains color schemes, slide and title samples with customizable formats, and stylized fonts. After applying the design template, each newly added slide is designed in the same style.

From the Format menu, select Apply Design Template (Slide Design) ... and then you will have a very pleasant “browse and select” process.

When the markup is selected, it remains to enter the title and subtitle text from the keyboard. To do this, just click on the placeholder, and enter the text, which will automatically be formatted in accordance with the settings of the selected design template.

The first slide is ready. slide number 2

The most difficult to manufacture and rich slide. We will start preparing it at the very last turn. Immediately after developing the first slide, we will proceed to the third. slide number 3

To insert a new slide, execute the Insert–New Slide command... The familiar Create Slide window appears. Select the slide layout Title and text in two columns.

  • Clicking on the title placeholder allows you to enter a new title.
  • A mouse click in the left column placeholder allows you to enter text.
  • The transition to a new paragraph inside the column is carried out using the key (Enter).
  • Before you is a bulleted list familiar from a text editor. The size, color and appearance of the marker are determined by the parameters of the selected design template.
  • When the first column is filled with text, click the placeholder for the second column.

slide number 4

It is developed in the same way as the previous slide. Do this work yourself.

  • Insert a new slide;
  • select the appropriate markup;
  • enter text;
  • if necessary, arrange the text in several lines;
  • evenly distribute text across columns;
  • move the placeholders if necessary;
  • choose the text alignment of your choice.

slide number 5

The main difference from the previous two slides is that in the Create Slide window you need to select the Title and Text markup.

However, this version uses a hierarchical (or multi-level) list (two levels of paragraphs - different markers and indents).

In order to "lower" or "raise" the level of a paragraph, use the buttons on the toolbar. You can first type all the text in one level (normal bulleted list), and then select the paragraphs of the next level and click the corresponding button on the toolbar. The marker will automatically be changed when the paragraph is moved to a new level.

When working with bulleted lists, be especially careful when selecting list items. The result largely depends on this.

Since, depending on the length of the lines of text you enter, you are likely to get both a "wide" and a "narrow" list, after typing, you may need to move the entire list so that it is visually centered on the slide.

Slide #6

It is performed in the same way as the previous slide.


slide number 2

Now let's start developing the second slide - the most difficult to complete and the most spectacular.

  • Since this slide needs to be inserted after the first one, it means that you should go to the first slide. Moving between slides is carried out using the buttons (arrows) located on the vertical scroll bar or the PageUp, PageDown keys.
  • When the first slide appears on the screen, select Insert-New Slide....
  • Select the Header Only markup.
  • Enter title text.
  • Next, design the headings of the sections of the course, placed in the frames. To do this, you need to use the Drawing panel.

If the Drawing panel is not on the screen, you can activate it by executing the View-Toolbars command. The Toolbars dialog box will appear on the screen. In the list of toolbars, activate the Draw switch.

The Drawing panel can be moved around the screen with the mouse so that it does not block the part of the slide that you are going to work on.

So, the Drawing panel is active, select the Caption tool on it. The mouse pointer has taken the form of a text cursor, place it in the right place and enter the name of the first section, for example, WORD. A frame (placeholder) appears around the text (similar to the situation when you used the Text Frame tool in the Word editor).

The title of the first section is ready. The three remaining are decorated in the same way. It is most convenient to replicate the existing one (move with the mouse while holding down the Ctrl key, then set the text cursor in the new heading and change the WORD text to EXCEL, etc. Thus, in a short period of time, you can prepare the headings of all sections.

The list of classes was prepared using the same techniques, only a simpler design was chosen (there is no fill, only the color of the line is selected). Do it yourself. In order for the text inside the frame to be located in two lines, type it in two paragraphs (after the first line, use the Enter key) or in two lines (Shift + Enter).

Create a Presentation with the AutoContent Wizard

By doing practical work, you will learn:

Create presentations using a ready-made template;
- combine documents of different types; select and customize animation effects;
- manage the display of the presentation using hyperlinks;
- introduce elements of an interactive survey into the presentation;
- reprogram control buttons.

The presentation you are about to create is a visualization of Internet text materials on the topic "Safety in the computer class."

To create a presentation, you can use the developments of specialists that the PowerPoint AutoContent Wizard offers. The AutoContent Wizard helps you choose from several built-in content templates. All templates are structured according to areas: general, service, business. Each area covers a range of topics. For example, in the direction General there are: a diploma, a general report, a training course, etc.

The templates offer useful ideas for creating a presentation and principles for organizing slides (plan) in accordance with the chosen topic. The presentation design style is set by the Wizard, but later you can choose any other or create your own.

Development of a presentation plan

Task 4.1. Selecting a Template Using the AutoContent Wizard

1. Download PowerPoint.

2. In the Create Presentation task pane, select the Create From Content Wizard link.

Table 4.3. Additional test slides

2. Compose a search request1. The key set of words should include the following phrases: (“safety” or “rules of conduct”) and (“computer class” or “computer room” or “display class” or “informatics room”).

3. Copy the text fragments into a separate text document, coordinating, at your discretion, its content with the prepared presentation plan. Do not forget to give links to sources on the Internet and to the authors of the source texts.

4. Prepare a text document and make a link to it in the presentation as a more detailed source.

Task 4.4. Filling slides with text

Explanation of the technology for completing the task

You can fill slides with text in both outline view and slide view. When using ready-made materials, it is preferable to use the slide mode. To switch to this mode, click on the Slide tab on the left side of the PowerPoint window (see Figure 4.1).

You can work directly with a slide not only in slide mode, but also in normal mode by clicking on the slide thumbnail tab.

Slide texts are typed inside text frames. These frames are created by the AutoContent Wizard. If necessary, you can remove an unnecessary frame or create an additional frame directly on the slide using the Caption tool. Frame borders as created

Both the Wizard and the Caption drawn with the tool can be resized with the mouse by dragging any of the size handles.

Task execution technology

1. Use the copy and paste commands to drag snippets from a web search document into your presentation. Switch from a text document to a presentation and vice versa by manipulating the open document buttons on the taskbar.

2. Fill in the missing points of the structure that require your opinion or conclusions by entering text directly from the keyboard. Along the way, adjust the font, size and style of the text.

3. If one slide selected by the AutoContent Wizard on the topic indicated by the plan is not enough, add new slides, following the content lines of the presentation.

Task 4.5. Making slides with drawings and photos

The presentation should not be overloaded with text, so as not to be like a text document read from the screen. It must have a good video sequence. Pictures, photographs of a computer class, or even animated miniatures are useful to bring the dry material to life. The only requirement for design is the thematic validity of illustrations.

Joking illustrations for computer-themed slides can be found on the Internet at:

http://compuhumour.narod.ru/science/safety.html (Anthology of computer humor).

Creating Presentation Controls

Task 4.6. Setting up an interactive table of contents with hyperlinks

Slide number 3, containing a list of topics for discussion, is actually the table of contents of the presentation. To ensure that you can jump directly from the table of contents to the desired section, make each line of the table of contents a hyperlink to the appropriate section:

1. Highlight the first topic heading listed in the table of contents.

2. Convert the selected text to a hyperlink by selecting the Slide Show Action Setup command from the menu. In the Follow Hyperlink list, select Slide and select the first slide of the corresponding topic from the list of slides.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for all headings listed in the table of contents.

Task 4.7. Ensuring a return to the table of contents

On the last slide of each topic, add a back to the table of contents button:

1. Select the Slide Show Control Buttons command from the menu, select the Custom button in the menu that appears, and click the mouse in the lower right corner of the slide (if necessary, resize the button by dragging its borders).

2. Right-click the control button, select Add Text Line from the context menu, and type Table of Contents.

4. Copy the back button and paste the copy on the last slide of each topic.

In accordance with the numerous applications of multimedia products are presented in a wide variety of formats. This is a slide show, multimedia presentation, multimedia report, advertising, promotional video, etc. Let's consider some of them.

Slide show

A slide show is a successive change of screens with a variety of information (information, advertising, analytical, cultural, geographical). Slideshows use various screen-to-screen transition effects. As a kind of slide show, you can use video, animation blocks. A slideshow may contain fragments of computer graphics: a company logo, various diagrams, charts, graphs, combined with dynamic music and a professional announcer's voice.

When producing a slide show, it is possible to create interactive slides. An interactive slide show allows you to select the desired block of images and transition effects. Adding, deleting, changing images and video clips is done in standard ways.

Slideshow is very convenient to use for conferences, presentations, promotions, exhibitions, multimedia kiosks, monitors and trainings.

multimedia presentation

Creating a multimedia presentation allows you to use a wide range of technologies to present information.

To achieve the intended goal, all multimedia components are actively used: video, 3D animation, visualization of processes, graphic images, text, sound and voice accompaniment. Multimedia presentations are successfully combined with exhibition equipment (projectors, large screens, monitors).

Presentations are linear, interactive and mixed.

Linear presentations are a commercial, usually with complex graphics, video inserts, good sound and voice accompaniment, which, after launch, is played in its entirety. At the same time, the user cannot influence the order in which the presentation is viewed.

Interactive presentations have a navigation system, that is, they allow the user to select the sections of interest to him and view them in random order. In this they resemble Internet sites, but unlike them, multimedia presentations allow you to work with large amounts of text, video, sound and graphics.

Mixed multimedia presentations have the properties of linear and interactive presentations.

multimedia report

Multimedia report allows you to accompany the speaker's text. Such a report combines the presentation of the content of the report in the form of graphs, images, illustrations with animation (3D, 2D), visualization of processes, video fragments. To achieve the goal, all multimedia components are actively used: video, 3D animation, graphics, text, sound and voice accompaniment. Multimedia reports are effective at conferences, readings, presentations. They are successfully combined with presentation equipment such as multimedia projectors, large screens, monitors.

Multimedia report happens:

  • * Linear type
  • * interactive type
  • * Mixed type

In linear reports, the user cannot influence the order in which the content is viewed. The report is a linear video, usually with complex graphics, video inserts, good sound and voice accompaniment, which, after launch, is played in its entirety.

Interactive reports have a navigation system, that is, they allow the user to choose the sections of interest to him and present them in any order.

Multimedia mixed-type reports have the properties of linear and interactive applications.

A multimedia report is written to a CD or DVD as standalone executable files for playback on a computer or as a video clip that can be played on any DVD player (linear multimedia reports only).

Introduction

At present, much attention is paid to the development of multimedia products, especially when it comes to the creation of computer encyclopedias, electronic textbooks, entertainment and educational programs, etc. What is a multimedia product? Firstly, it is a software product that necessarily provides the user with an interactive, that is, interactive, mode of operation, which involves the exchange of commands and responses between a person and a computer. Secondly, it is an environment where a variety of video and audio effects are used.

Relevance: thanks to the development of multimedia technologies, it became possible to combine a multi-component environment (text, sound, graphics, video, photo) into a homogeneous digital representation and to store large amounts of information reliably and for a long time. Information is guaranteed to be stored for at least ten years. At the same time, the processing of information turns from routine operations into creative ones.

The main characteristic features of these technologies are:

· unification of a multicomponent information environment (text, sound, graphics, photo, video) in a homogeneous digital representation;

· ensuring reliable (no distortion when copying) and long-term storage (warranty period of storage - tens of years) of large amounts of information;

Ease of information processing (from routine to creative operations).

Today, we cannot help but think about what awaits our students. It is known that the future will require from them a huge stock of knowledge in the field of modern technologies. Today, already 60% of job offers require minimal computer knowledge, and this percentage will increase.

object research in this paper is information technology.

Subject studies are multimedia technology.

aim This work is to identify the features and capabilities of multimedia technology.

Objectives of the course work:

1. Outline the stages of multimedia technology;

2. Describe the possibilities of multimedia technology;

3. Tell about the use of multimedia technology.


Chapter 1 MULTIMEDIA PRODUCTS

Basic concepts, features and classification

A multimedia product is an interactive computer development, which may include musical accompaniment, video clips, animation, picture and slide galleries, various databases, etc. Multimedia is the sum of technologies that allow a computer to input, process, store, transmit and display (output) data types such as text, graphics, animation, digitized still images, video, sound, speech.

According to GOST 7.83, the following main classes of information resources (electronic documents that have undergone editorial processing and intended for distribution) are distinguished, allocated for various reasons:

- by the presence of a non-electronic analogue:

an electronic analogue of a traditional document,

independent electronic publication;

– by the nature of the data:

text electronic edition,

pictorial electronic edition (including facsimile),

audio electronic edition,

· software,

multimedia edition;

- for public purposes:

The official electronic publication

scientific electronic edition,

popular scientific electronic edition,

production and practical electronic edition,

normative production and practical electronic edition,

educational electronic edition,

mass-political electronic edition,

reference electronic edition,

electronic publication for leisure,

· art electronic edition;

- according to the distribution technology:

Local e-publishing

Online e-publishing

· electronic edition of combined distribution;

- by the nature of interaction with the user

deterministic electronic edition,

· interactive electronic edition;

- by frequency:

a non-periodical electronic publication,

Serial electronic edition

periodical electronic publication,

ongoing electronic publication,

updated electronic edition;

- by structure:

One-volume electronic edition

multi-volume electronic edition,

· electronic series (272).

Classifiers of types and purposes of information resources (IR) are based or should be based on GOST 7.60–90 (Types of publications) and GOST 7.83–2001 (Electronic publications).

At the first level, IRs are classified according to the type of information carrier.

There are 4 classes of IR:

1 - IR on computer media;

2 - IR on non-computer audio information carriers;

3 - IR on non-computer video information carriers;

4 - IR on paper.

There are subclasses:

– information products;

- software products;

– software and information products;

- services provided on the basis of network IR (megaresources: electronic library, search service, etc.).

There are many features to describe, i.e. multi-aspect classification of information arrays, each of which is significant from a certain point of view.

The basic set of features that are essential for most tasks and the classification of resources are:

Source of IR: for example, official information, published, etc.;

IR belonging to a certain organizational or information system: for example, archival, library, museum, NTI, etc. resources;

form of ownership of the IR: state (federal, subject of the federation), municipal, property of public organizations, joint-stock, private, as well as an indication of the owner;

The nature of the use of IR (appointment), IR mass, interdepartmental, departmental, regional, intra-company, personal, etc.;

The volume of the information array (expressed in comparable units of measurement);

Openness of information: open, secret, confidential;

Form of information presentation: textual, digital, graphic, multimedia, etc.;

IR carrier: electronic, paper, etc.;

Method of dissemination of information: networks (global, local), publications, etc.

The natural language in which the information is presented (274).

In addition, the most important characteristics of IR are such parameters that are difficult to formalize, such as completeness, reliability, relevance and significance of the information contained in them.

In turn, multimedia products can be conditionally divided into several groups, depending on which categories of users they are aimed at (76).

The most massive group of multimedia products is computer games.

The second group consists of multimedia business applications.

The third group is educational programs distributed most often on computer CDs.

The fourth group includes special programs designed for independent production of various multimedia products (both amateur and professional).

Technical implementation of the project, i.e. Creating a full-fledged multimedia CD or DVD can be quite a laborious and lengthy process. At this stage, it is very important to choose the development environment that most fully meets the goal, since an incorrectly chosen solution will inevitably lead to a loss of time and money.

Without going into details, it can be argued that there are two main ways to create a multimedia application: use specialized development tools or outsource this work to programmers to create a multimedia application from scratch. If we are talking about the presentation, then the second method is too slow and expensive, and the choice is clear in favor of specialized preparation tools. In other cases, both options are possible. The best solution is often to use a ready-made package and extend its capabilities through the use of programming languages, but this solution is not possible for all specialized packages.

Most multimedia products fall into one of the following categories:

Web applications;

Presentations;

Application prototypes;

Educational programs;

Hypertext/hypermedia applications;

With the exception of the last point, for the rest of the application categories, in most cases, you can find a suitable specialized package.

Stages of developing a multimedia product

It is customary to single out several stages in the development of a multimedia product:

· Concept development, ideas;

· Designing;

· Creation of information objects;

· Rationing of the interface with the user;

· Integration of information elements into a linear (presentation) or non-linear (interactive author's applications) application;

· Testing, debugging;

· Publication.

Concept development, ideas

Logically, this stage can be divided into two components: examination and planning. The result is a development decision, which is why it is sometimes referred to as the feasibility study stage. Examination gives an answer to the question whether all the main components are available to complete the project, and planning - whether it is realistic to complete the project within the allotted time.

The feasibility study (or appraisal) phase begins the moment one of the future authors comes up with an idea. Before starting a project, the author of the idea should have a good idea of ​​who will be interested in the project to such an extent as to invest money in it, how long the project can be done, and how much it will cost, how long it will pay off. To conduct a feasibility study, you need to:

1) Having a team. The team should include people who can write a script, develop graphic design (and this is the face of your publication), technical specialists who will take care of the amount of work on layout

2) The presence of a project manager, whose main task is to make sure that all work is completed on time and all project participants work smoothly. To do this, he needs to know every day who, with what success and what is doing in the project, and predict the bottlenecks and critical points of the project. A typical development team includes:

・Screenwriter

· Programmer

· Artist - designer

Audio/video specialist (operator)

interface designer

Project manager, director, producer

3) Outline the range of future major technical and software solutions. This category of issues to be analyzed at the feasibility stage includes the choice of hardware/software platform, data formats and software tools for development, with the author's tool as a key element of development at the center.

4) Availability of resources, which should include ordinary and specialized workplaces equipped with a CD-ROM burner, normal sound cards, a voice recording console, a video digitizing board, a scanner, etc.

5) Licenses. Availability of rights to the material to be included in the publication. Rights must be guaranteed by contract. Licensed software must be used.

6) Availability of a budget (i.e. expenditure) and a schedule for the development of the entire project, from the start to its publication. The budget and the plan are interconnected not only by money, but also by the fact that unplanned work will definitely appear. Planning is carried out with the expectation of the worst-case scenario. It is customary to distinguish three categories of budgets for development: low-budget, medium-budget and high-budget projects. Table 3.6. an example of calculating labor costs for the main stages of the development of a medium-budget project is given.

The process of creating multimedia information systems can be considered as consisting of two main phases:

Design phases

Implementation phases

Design phase

1. Designing a conceptual scenario model for a multimedia information system.

2. Designing media-dependent representations of information.

3. Designing information structures.

4. Designing media combinations and synchronizations (sound - video)

6. Designing information topologies (general environment)

7. User interface design

8. User Interface Design

9. Designing Navigation Methods

Implementation phase

1. Implementation must be accompanied by tools and methods of creation.

2. Primary integration

3. Create fragments

4. Create structure

5. Full integration of multimedia product installation, i.e. connection of all elements into a single product, in accordance with a certain structure and given navigation tools.

6. Production of a multimedia product (defined by the carrier)

7. Distribution of multimedia product


AT At present, much attention is paid to the development of multimedia products, especially when it comes to the creation of computer encyclopedias, electronic textbooks, entertainment and educational programs, guides, etc. A multimedia product is, on the one hand, a software product that provides the user with the possibility of an interactive (dialog) mode of operation, and on the other hand, an environment where various video and audio effects are used. It is very reminiscent of a film, where the viewer is given the opportunity to independently choose one or another plot situation.

A multimedia product is an interactive computer development, which may include musical accompaniment, video clips, animation, picture and slide galleries, various databases, etc.

According to the educational function, multimedia products can be divided into:

encyclopedias;

· training programs;

developmental programs;

programs for children;

To date, multimedia products have become available to a wide range of customers and are used as information support and popularization of ideas in almost all areas of human activity. However, the level of their performance is not always equally good. When purchasing various multimedia accessories, you need to pay attention to the following indicators:

the quality and reliability of the material presented;

the quality of the proposed graphic material;

sound accompaniment (text, musical arrangement, musical screensavers, etc.);

availability of video materials and their quality;

· interactive features (different viewing directions, depth of study of the material, the possibility of printing information, etc.);

· friendly interface.

Not every finished software product meets these requirements, and the personal interests of the user may differ significantly from the direction proposed by the developers. In this case, you can develop your own software product that allows you to expand the selected topic and create your own interface. Despite the fact that the development of a multimedia product is a complex and expensive process, more and more artists, designers and programmers are successfully mastering this area of ​​activity.

To create a multimedia product, the following may be involved:

· programming languages;

tools, i.e. special software products such as Macromedia Director, Formula Graphics Multimedia System, Multimedia Creator, AuthorWare Professional, etc.

Projects developed in this way are somewhat cheaper, but less versatile, as they are limited by the capabilities of the tool used.

The development of multimedia products directly by a small travel or any other company or office without the involvement of specialists can be carried out on the basis of MS Office applications, and additional software products can be used to prepare the material, for example, such as PhotoShop (graphics processing), Adobe Premier (video clips processing). ), StoikSoftware (image processing and morphing), Windows Phonograph for sound recording and processing.

A multimedia software product often contains databases that can be implemented using, for example, MS Access. Demonstration of pictures or clips is carried out using PowerPoint. To create an interactive mode, hyperlinks are used that allow you to access a more detailed commentary. To create a multimedia product, you need to have two types of software tools:

· to prepare the material to be included in the multimedia product;

to create the product itself.

The material included in a multimedia product can be represented by drawings, audio and video recordings, texts. These are fundamentally different types of information, for working with which there are their own software environments with the appropriate tools. Consider the most popular software products for various types of information.

Processing of graphic objects. When working with graphic objects, two types of activities should be distinguished: scanning and creating (editing) drawings. Scanning is the process of automatically reading information from paper media using special devices - scanners and then entering this information into a computer. The following software products are used to scan pictures: PhotoEditor - an application included in MS Office and allows you to scan pictures, as well as carry out some operations to prepare graphic material (change the contrast, brightness, color and orientation of a picture), Corel Photo-Paint - a software product that allows you to scan drawings, as well as process the material (erasure, change color, change orientation, scale, color saturation, etc.).

The most common and easy-to-use software environments for creating and editing drawings are:

Adobe Photoshop- a software product that allows you to process graphic files. This editor works with a large number of formats (JPG, GIF , PSD, TIF and others) and, in addition to the standard processing of images, allows you to pass them through various filters (twisting, bas-relief, graininess, lighting changes, etc.);

Stoik Art Men- is included in the domestic software product Stoik Software and allows you to create various options for pictorial stylizations (watercolor, oil, engraving, etc.).

Video processing. Currently, digital video cameras are widely used, which allows processing and editing without pre-processing. Digital video is characterized by several parameters. The main ones are: frame size (frame size), number of frames per second (frames per second, fps), bit rate (Bit Rate, data stream) and scanning type (interlaced or progressive). The presence of interlacing is due to the peculiarities of the transmission of a television signal. With interlaced scanning, a frame consists of two half-frames transmitted in turn, with progressive scanning, the frame is transmitted as a whole. The most popular software products that allow you to process video sequences are Adobe Premier and Morphman.

Adobe Premier- a software product that allows you to digitize and assemble fragments with a large number of transitions between them, it is possible to change the size and orientation of the frame.

MorphMan- a product included in Stoik Software and allows you to edit video materials, as well as create morphing. Under morphing the process of transition from one video image to another by means of their step-by-step transformation is understood. This software product allows you to create both static morphing and morphing between video fragments.

Sound processing. The simplest and most convenient means of sound processing is Phonograph is a standard MS Windows application. It allows you to record sound and edit it (lower or raise the sound, increase / decrease the speed, create various effects).

Word processing. When working with text, some part of it can be entered into a computer directly from the keyboard, large texts that do not require much change are more convenient to enter using a scanner, which provides for further text processing using special software products.

FineReader- a program used to convert scanned materials into text form for further processing in a text editor.

Software products designed to create multimedia products are expensive and require certain professional training, therefore they are used mainly by professional developers. Here are some of these software products:

Macromedia Director- is used to create presentations and multimedia products, Web-applications.

Formula Graphics Multimedia System- ensures the preparation of interactive multimedia programs (electronic encyclopedias, Web applications, sites, etc.).

DreamWeaver UltraDev- the program is the first development tool that allows you to visually create and edit Web applications on various server platforms. With Dreamweaver UltraDev, e-businesses can dramatically accelerate the development of projects ranging from dynamically generated pages and forms to enterprise-wide solutions like online stores or intranet database applications.

Macromedia Fireworks- universal tool for the production of high-quality web-graphics. Allows you to quickly create buttons, animations and graphic page compositions. Fireworks integrates seamlessly with Dreamweaver and other popular HTML editors.

When creating a multimedia project, you need to pay attention to the criteria that distinguish a good product from a mediocre one.

Firstly, the theme of the project should be of interest to a large number of users. When choosing a topic, the degree of its relevance, the severity of the issues under consideration, the possibility of creative and cultural development, and broadening one's horizons are equally important.

Secondly, it is necessary to clearly represent the practical purpose of creating the project.

Thirdly, when creating a project, a good script and the quality of services provided in the process of work are important.

Fourthly, the quality of graphic and video material is an important point.

The presence of video materials improves the perception of any information, and high quality graphics make it possible to enjoy pictures and slides, while low quality causes discomfort and hinders the perception of the material. The last thing that can be noted is the quality of the texts involved in the project, their completeness, reliability, and promptness of updating. When starting work on a project, you must select a data representation model that must meet the following rules:

clarity of presentation of information;

ease of entering information;

Ease of searching, viewing and selecting information;

the possibility of using information from other software products;

the possibility of reconfiguring the project;

· friendly interface, providing an interactive mode.

When developing a multimedia project, it is desirable to follow a certain sequence of stages of work:

Choosing a topic and posing a problem. Having decided on the topic, it is necessary to clearly define the task for creating a multimedia product, where its purpose and purpose should be indicated.

Project analysis. At this stage, it is considered what objects the project can consist of, as well as what parameters characterize these objects.

Scenario development and model synthesis.
