Subject Description

This subject is directed at students who wish to further develop their understanding of interactive multimedia and hypermedia as a media form, and who wish to further develop their multimedia design and authoring skills. Each student will determine genre, content and appropriate software tools to design and execute a multimedia project. During the course of the semester students will have the opportunity to develop a more sophisticated understanding of the aesthetics of multimedia; the technical problems associated with form, and their solutions; the epistemological implications of the form relative to other media forms, and the significance of hypertextual and interactive structure in the context of the content and the anticipated readership. Students will demonstrate their understanding through the design and construction of a multimedia product, and through a critical review of their multimedia product.

Assessment

A multimedia project and written work critiquing multimedia and multimedia design equivalent to 4000 words for 3rd-year 5000 words for 4th-year.
