Key text for your work as a student
Counts, E (2004) Multimedia Design and Production, London: Pearson
ED Counts’ web site
Be a moviemaker
“With contemporary technologies, virtually anyone can be a moviemaker … Even more revolutionary than simply making our own movies, we can distribute them to the world via the World Wide Web.” (p8)
Counts, 2004
Be creative“… students and teachers can learn to use multimedia tools, theories and skills to create original , inventive and expressive works of high technical quality.” (p7)
Counts, 2004
Spectacular results
“Unfortunately, if one wishes to use multimedia tools creatively, there is no way to avoid the many hours that it takes to learn to use them. Most often, however, the time spent pays off in successful and sometimes even spectacular results.” (p9)
Counts, 2004
Vision
“The creative and expressive power of contemporary multimedia production tools is nearly unlimited … [but] merely having some skills in operating tools and devices cannot compensate for a lack of vision, imagination, motivation, passion and above all, a point of view.” (p12)
Counts, 2004
