 When the user is given the option of controlling the
elements.
Hypermedia – it refers to as a combination of
hypertext, graphics, audio, video, (linked elements) and
interactivity culminating in a complete, non-linear
computer-based experience.
Interactive Multimedia
Example
• Multimedia can be categorized by the manner
of interaction with the viewers or audience
towards it.
• Linear – This is a multimedia type wherein the flow
of the content is predetermined by the creator.
• Non-linear – This is a multimedia type that uses
navigation components to provide the users
freedom to move around the application.
Categories of Multimedia
• A Multimedia Project is identified as Linear when:
– It is not interactive
– User have no control over the content that is being
showed to them.
• Example:
– A movie
– A non-interactive lecture / demo show
LINEAR
Linear VS Non-Linear
• A Multimedia Project is identified as Non-Linear
when:
– It is interactive
– Users have control over the content that is
being showed to them.
– Users are given navigational control
• Example:
– Games
– Courseware
– Interactive CD
NON-LINEAR
Linear VS Non-Linear
• Use to merge multimedia elements (text, audio,
graphic, animation, video) into a project.
• Designed to manage individual multimedia
elements and provide user interaction (if
required).
Authoring Tools
• Example:
– Macromedia
Authorware
– Macromedia
Director
– Macromedia
Flash
– Microsoft
Power Point

Types of Multimedia
• A multimedia can take different forms and manner
of representations.
 Multimedia Games and Simulations
 Multimedia Presentations
 Multimedia Navigation
Multimedia Games and Simulations
• Information is presented to the audience by initiating a
real-life information source to its digital environment
equivalent.
• The users can freely explore the
environment to search for the
information they need.
Multimedia Presentations
• The information is navigated in a sequence of
slideshows and uses an application software.
Multimedia Navigation
 This type of multimedia uses different graphical
elements and is linked to different pages.
 Web elements such as buttons and links are
incorporated.
• There are a number of fields where
multimedia could be of use.
• Examples are:
– Business
– Education
– Entertainment
– Home
– Public Places
