The presentation should include the following:

  • a Main Point or Idea and a "catchy" title
  • overview description - table of contents
  • description of each bullet point (5 to 7 per frame)
  • logical sequence or navigation
  • graphics - sound & transitions optional

week 08 assignment, Flowchart/Navigation Map project due week 14

A navigation diagram or storyboard will be very helpfull with your media design.
Please turn in a copy of your design diagram as a preview of presenting your final project.
Higher grades are given for professionally formatted submissions. This should be considered part of your portfolio.


week 14 assignment, FINAL Digital Media project due week 16

Develop a Digital Media project in either Dreamweaver or GameMaker. The end result will be either a three page web site (html) or a stand-alone EXE file that should demonstrate the following:

  • navigation between pages or rooms going forward and backward, or random selection
  • the inclusion of graphics in the form of sprites or embedded media
  • examples of interaction such as roll-over changes; or cursor control of character sprites
  • interactive playback of sound and/or music optional
Grades at the "A" level will require more than these minimums. The more original the design, the better the grade.
