AN APPROACH TO MULTIMEDIA PRESENTATIONS

Ervin Šilić ; Novena d.o.o., Zagreb, Hrvatska

Abstract

Planning how to make a scenario for multimedia presentation of a museum we should ask ourselves weather we have used all the possibilities multimedia is giving us. The long time printed materials
domination frequently results just in copying the content to the new media with a little or no change. Text, colour or photography reign in the print, while in a multimedia presentation we add the use of video, sound, animation, and the most important, interactivity. Using all advantages of multimedia, the desired material can be conveyed to the user more realistically. The quantity of the material being presented is also a frequent issue. Too much material (text, photos, illustrations, etc.) can repel the user when he/she sees its range at the first sight, as it is the case with a printed publication which
dimensions realistically illustrate the quantity of the material. With multimedia, if the content is well structured, such problems do not exist, since the user will consume as much as he/she is interested
in, not knowing how much material is yet to be searched. By making the right scenario for multimedia presentation of some content, we will achieve much more than it has been the case with a printed catalogue. Multimedia enables us to present the material in
a more direct way becoming much more than a mere accompanying material of exhibition.
