Print Media
Printed media vs Digitalmedia
during this article we are contrasting the differences between the 2
media's. Now firstly we're getting to take a glance at printed media and
essentially printed media is media that's placed on it or printed on to
paper-based documents like books, magazines and encyclopedias. they're
created employing a combination of steel text and pictures . Essential
things that are still the 2 media types that are still they do not move
printed media is sold in stores as hard copies they will even be
delivered to individuals homes through subscription programs and online
purchasing. Printed media has been around for hundreds of years and it's
still considered by many. the well-liked thanks to read large amounts
of textual data obviously pages are filled with text people wish to read
that off paper sometimes watching a display screen hurts people's lives
for giant amounts of text which is why it's preferred within the case
the benefits of printed media also are that there's no power necessary
neither is there a requirement for a selected device to look at the
printed media. Okay if you've the piece of paper that's all you would
like , you bought the book that's all you'll need.It's independent of
electricity and it's independent of device so essentially what we are
watching is paper-based documents that have text printed on them and
much of rows of text for us to read and that they also can include
images. As I just stated at the start it's only those two types and
media which will be viewed on printed media is simply text and pictures
but essentially they display them effectively. They're appealing to the
eyes cause obviously of the paper format still preferred by many of us .
Digital Media
Next we'll advance to Digital Media
and I'll say it right from the start now stemming from that it contains
a minimum of three media types and check out to consider it in your
head as paper-based media for the printed media could only display text
and pictures . So essentially once we get into a 3rd media type being
added on we are now in Digital Media
category and it's because it can display those media types that do
contain moving elements. So as setting this first line here it contains
obviously a mixture of text, hypertext,
images, audio, animation and video a minimum of three of these .
Hypertext is thrown in there obviously also because it links interfaces
together once you use hypertext you click thereon and takes the user to a
different location information is presented on devices like computers,
tablets, mobile phones and other digital devices. If it's digital you're
probably viewing may be a multimedia format. Since multimedia is
digital it allows for interactivity with the user who can navigate the
merchandise through the hyperlinks and pre-programmed buttons also as
gestures. So it's user orientated that interactively means the user can
check out something, they will continue something with their hand if it
is a touch based device or they will click thereon if it's on a computer
and it'll take them to a different area of the multimedia package.
Through the utilization of buttons and hyperlinks areas where multimedia
could also be used included web science, games apps and knowledge .
okay you see digital media or multimedia everyday wherever you are at school, playing your games, at the shops, we're looking up a store, it's everywhere digital media can
also be copied and distributed easily via email also and more than
likely downloaded through app stores and websites. When you want a new
app on your phone you access the relevant app store, you go to it and
you download a new app and that's the sample of multimedia.
It is extremely accessible from almost any geographical location in the
world provided you have an internet connection because that's how you
connect to the actual app store. Multimedia
is also still disputed and installed through DVD and blu-ray. When you
go to your shops you JB hi-fi as your Walmart's you can still buy them
because that way obviously the media is actually stored on the disk as
opposed to you having to store that file size on your system. Often in
the cases in multimedia
files they are large because they've got large graphics in their video
and sound which all have large file sizes and so if we have them on
optical disk which is still popular although we are obviously using a
lot more streaming services these days. We can view them at our leisure
but essentially what we're talking about when were viewing multimedia
is we can view it on multiple devices. On your computer, your tablet,
on your TV, on your mobile phone and obviously they being distributed
via the Internet as well as DVD. That's kind of the backbone in these
days of when we are viewing our multimeter because there are so many
streaming services. Now we can stream our radio online there's obviously
being such as Spotify for streaming music as opposed to actually
installing it on our phone as well as Apple music and then obviously the
popularity of Netflix and online movie rental systems for viewing
movies in high-definition and 4k which is extremely large file sizes
through the internet as opposed to us getting a physical copy. So it's
extremely popular multimedia these days it's everywhere.
Comparison between Print Media and Digital Media
Let's just have a look at both the printed media and multimedia side-by-side. So firstly printed media is displayed as still text and images, the media types that don't move whereas multimedia
can be text hypertext, audio, animation and video at least three of
these types are in effect for the actual package to be considered a
multimedia package.Paper media is viewed on paper documents, with books,
magazines and encyclopedias but as said with multimedia
it's viewed on digital devices such as tablets, mobile phones and
computers. With printed media there is minimal interactivity you can
turn in the pages you might be able to fill in crosswords or do a little
maze with your pen on the paper but it's very minimal. There's also
those choose your pathway books we can turn to a specific page of it not
much interactivity whereas multimedia
the whole backbone it's interactive that's the whole pro of actually
doing it. It's meant to be interactive and through the use of
hyperlinks, buttons, mouse clicks, keyboard presses, and gestures for
touch devices which allow the user to orientate where they want to go in
the multimedia
software. For print media's distributed through newsagents, bookstores
and libraries and can also be delivered through online stores and
subscription services whereas multimedia
is distributed via email downloaded through app stores in the internet
and installed through external storage such as DVDs and blu-ray. Finally
is document Authority. We'll actually looking at in individually but
for authority those who own the actual multimedia
or have developed it. We're looking at writers, editors and publishers
for those who develop the actual printed media. That's pretty can
assistant for all types of print media but what we're going to send multimedia
because we've got multiple media types and those media types are a lot
harder to create. We do have the writers, editors and publishers but
also forgot web host and different media designers such as graphic
designers. We have video production teams involved. If you've ever
finished one of your video games once you finish the game you see the
end credits, you see how many people there were involved in the making
in that package. So obviously Authority is more widely spread due to the
more people working on those documents. So I hope this article giving
you an understanding of the differences between printed media and multimedia
printed media not being obsolete due to the fact that it is sometimes
still considered the preferred way to read large amounts of text and
obviously being independent of devices through it being on paper and can
not need an electricity either though multimedia
having the advantages of its ease of distribution through email and web
stores. The fact that it can include larger all the different types of
media types and essentially through the internet you can access it
anywhere in the world and that whole flying thing that we've actual multimedia.
It is interactive, its user oriented, making it more fun for the user
and obviously improving the user experience when you use it.
