This is the fifth of six units in the Bachelor of Communication Design’s multimedia stream. Through a series of lectures, tutorials and practical sessions, this subject further develops video editing and programming skills (lingo) to create sophisticated multimedia projects. This subject further develops audio video editing skills (ie Final Cut Pro) and combines these through the use of programming and interface design software (Macromedia Director). Students will build on previous editing and programming skills to learn a series of advanced multimedia production techniques using industry standard software. Students will be encouraged to develop and incorporate their own design styles into the specified practical projects.
