<p><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">The idea of New
Media has emerged out of the digital convergence of originally separate media;
print, broadcast, audio, image, and film. This fusion, combined with the power
the World Wide Web, has initiated an incredible explosion of possibilities for
communication. In this course, students will explore the evolution of New Media
and its current impact on society and culture. Simultaneously, students will
produce their own multimedia works using the tools of the industry. The course
is a series of lectures, demonstrations and Macintosh computer lab exercises.
Assignments will explore concepts of motion and interactive design that are
needed for effective web and multimedia project development. </font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">Attention is placed
on balancing technical skills with content within a framework that stresses
a conceptual and experimental approach. Topics include; motion graphics, elements
of graphic design, digital video effects, interface design, interactivity, sound
and a survey of creative projects. The course will serve as an in-depth foundation
to any student (artist, designer, author, teacher, professional from any discipline)
curious about the creative possibilities of New Media. Upon completion, students
will be prepared for further study and possible career paths in the field. </font></p>
