GDES2000: Task 02: Multimedia Interface Research

Task set: Tues 21st Feb session [Andystevo].


S2, Task 02 Multimedia interface research

Think about the examples of multimedia you found for this week’s LT discussion with ref to your own brief and webpages.

Now you’ve explored a few different types of multimedia interface and thought about structures this week… We want to evolve your rough multimedia ideas so that you’re clearer what multimedia you  may use in your site.

Requirements:
• Draw coloured sketches (please use rulers) in your layout pads of 2 possible interface methods for each multimedia page in your site – there’s at least 3x elements per brief/site.

• Add written comments to these [enough to help explain to your learning team] they’ll need to know:

a. How each one will work

b. What interface elements you’ve decided to use
[buttons, control elements, sliders etc].

c. What imagery and sounds you’d like to use..
[i.e sound fx or vocal accompaniment or maybe musical etc].

Considerations:

• Think about how these ideas you’ve brought might be controlled, how the user and audience[s] will interact with them potentially.

• Think about the placement of buttons and controls, display elements, control of sound and vision etc).
