- - - - develop an organized outline a a plan that rationally details the skills, time, budget, tools, and resources we will need for a project
    - - essential for the efficient
      - File Transfer Protocol (FTP) may be the most cost-effective
    - - develop a sense of its scope and content
      - difficult to learn
  - - - 2 most significance platforms
        
        • Macintosh OS
        
        • Intel-based IBM PC or PC Clone (MS Windows)
      - development environment
        
        • Powerful workstation (Silicon Graphics, Sun Microsystems, or mainframe)
      - Apple (Macintosh OS) more suitable for multimedia editing
      - Cross platform format (both Mac & Windows)
      - .
        
        memory
        
        memory requirements of a multimedia project depend on the project's content and scope
        
        sufficient memory must be allocated for storing and archiving files
        
        storage device : Hard Disk, Flash Memory, CD- ROM, DVD and Blue Ray
        
        two types of memory are random access memory (RAM) and read only memory (ROM)
        
        input device
        
        ex: keyboard, mouse, camera, microphone and etc
        
        four forms of input
        
        Data
        
        Program
        
        Commands
        
        User responses
        
        allow user enter DATA and COMMANDS into memory
        
        output device
        
        convey information to one or more people
        
        four forms of output
        
        Text
        
        Audio
        
        sound chips, microphones
        
        Video
        
        videodisc players, video cards
        
        Graphics
    - - multimedia software tells the hardware what to do
      - text, images, sounds, and video
        
        capturing images, translating between file formats, and editing your resources
        
        photoshop, SoundForge, Premiere, GIF Animator, etc.
      - multimedia authoring
        
        Macromedia Director or flash
      - types of Software
        
        graphical tools
        
        sound editing tools
        
        text-based editing tools
        
        animation, video, and digital movie tools
        
        video formats
        
        utilities useful for multimedia
    - - Internet Service Provider
      - a collection of computers and other hardware components interconnected by communication channels that allow sharing of resources and information
      - LAN and WAN
      - Cable and Wireless
        
        • Ethernet, Fiber Optics, WIFI, Bluetooth n etc
      - connection methodologies
        
        Universal Serial Bus (USB)
        
        USB uses a single cable to connect 127 USB peripherals to a single PC
        
        It can be attached to one computer at a time
        
        It is a standard for connecting devices to the computer using the plug-and-play system
        
        FireWire
        
        FireWire was introduced by Apple in the 1980s
        
        It is the industry standard and provides support for high-bandwidth serial data transfer, particularly for digital video and mass storage
        
        Can connect multiple computers and peripheral devices (peer-to-peer)
        
        It is the most common method for connecting and interconnecting professional digital video equipment
        
        Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE)
        
        They connect only internal peripherals
        
        They can connect four peripherals mounted inside the PC
        
        IDE connections are also known as Advanced Technology Attachment (ATA).
        
        The circuitry for IDE is less expensive than SCSI
        
        IDE utilizes processor chip time
        
        SATA
        
        Small Computer System Interface (SCSI)
        
        SCSI can connect internal and external peripheral equipments and devices that conform to the SCSI standard
        
        SCSI cards can be installed on Macintosh and PC platforms
        
        SCSI is preferred for real-time video editing, network servers, and situations that require mirroring
        
        SCSI ID conflicts should be avoided by providing unique IDs to devices.
        
        IDE
        
        Fiber Channel
        
        Serial and Parallel Port
