A
few relatively recent developments poise the multimedia
industry for a breakthrough in popularity and market opportunities.
The three most important developments have been a significant
increase in processing power of personal computers, the
development of digital storage devices such as the CD-ROM
and the dramatic reduction in cost of each to the consumer.
Finally, multimedia has made significant penetration into
the marketplace and its growth will continue as sales of
many new computer systems include a CD-ROM and Internet
connections as standard options.

| What
is Multimedia?
|
|
Multimedia
is the process of integrating different types of media into
one format. Interactive multimedia allows the user to interact
with the information being presented as well as control
what order and how it will be presented. In essence, it
combines full motion video, pictures, sound recordings and
text into a single package that can be accessed by the user
in a variety of ways. This process can be used for any type
of application ranging from training systems, corporate
presentation programs, interactive information kiosks and
retail CD-ROM. In addition to accessing information, interactive
multimedia, when tied into a network system, will allow
users to order and utilize services and products all from
one access point
|
| Processes: |
| The "multi"
part of multimedia means development has to be a team effort.
We bring all the requisite skills to the table - the industry
knowledge and strategic intent of the client; the producer's
dogged attention to the client's evolving needs; the engineering
expertise to make sure it's buildable; the architectural and
graphic design sense to create an environment that people
can and will want to use |
|
Costs Associated with Developing Interactive Multimedia Applications? |
| The
cost of developing an interactive multimedia presentation
or training program depends on three major factors: content,
complexity and distribution |
|
First,
does the content already exist or does it have to be created
from scratch? |
|
Second,
is the multimedia program a linear presentation or does it
have a number of interactive links between sections and to
external information. |
|
And,
third, how will the product be distributed? Via a laptop?
CD-ROM? Internet? Kiosk?
Each of the above will have a different cost impact. These
questions have to be addressed before a detailed cost estimate
can be prepared. |
