MM Hardware

• Each hardware has its own functions.
• 1) Scanners are used to convert conventional
  images, texts, drawings and photos into digital
  form that can be understood by the computer.
• 2) Video cameras analog video camera and digital
  video camera (DV).
• An analog video camera records video in analog
  signals on a magnetic video tape.
• A digital video camera records video in digital
  signals, which can be stored in various forms of
  media, such as digital video tape or memory cards.

• 3) Camera -
• An ordinary camera, images are captured on a roll
  of film.
• In a digital camera, images are captured and
  stored in a media card.
• 4) Audio devices - are needed to record analog
  sound.
• The sounds are then changed into digital sound.

• 5) Video capture devices help to convert analog
  video to digital video.
• The fire wire helps to transfer the video from
  video camera to the computer.
• They also transfer digital video to the computer
  so that the data can be edited or stored.

4.2.2 Editing Software
10
Editing Software

• To edit the elements multimedia, we need special
  editing software.

11
Editing Software

• A text editor is used to edit plain text.

12
Editing Software

4.2.3 Authoring Tools
18
Authoring Tools

• is a program that helps you write multimedia
  applications.
• usually enable you to create a final application
  by linking together objects such as a paragraph
  of text, graphic or a video.
• By sequencing them in an appropriate order,
  authoring tools can produce attractive and useful
  multimedia applications.

Time Frame Concept
21
Time Frame Concept

• With time frame concept authoring tools, the
  multimedia elements or events are presented and
  organised along a time line.
• This type of tool helps users coordinate when
  each multimedia element (text, graphics, audio,
  video or animation) plays.
• In time frame concept authoring tools, a timeline
  consists of layers which span several frames.

22
Icon Concept
23
Icon Concept

• The icon concept in authoring tools provides the
  multimedia developer with a visual programming
  approach to sequencing events in the multimedia
  application.
• In this concept, elements and events are
  organised in a structural framework.

24
Card Concept
25
Card Concept

• The card concept in authoring tools are based on
  the idea of card stacks containing graphics,
  audio, video, text and animation.
• Elements and events in card concept authoring
  tools are organised as pages in a book or a stack
  of cards.
