Introduction to Digital Media

An introduction to digital media for interactive multimedia majors through the study of state-of- the-art methods of creating digital media: painting programs, digital image editing, time-based, and interactive authoring programs. Computers make creating and editing still and time-based media easy and effective. Through studio sessions, students construct various types of digital media. Seminar sessions include critiques of student work, readings, and discussion that examine the evolving aesthetic, technical, and social implications of this work.

Genevieve Faust, Tammy Tibbetts

Created in collaboration with TCNJ alumn Tammy Tibbetts for the IMM Interactive Journalism course, a documentary website that uses words, images, sound and video to tell the story of Macdella Cooper, who survived the Liberian Civil War as a young girl, making her way to the U.S. where she excelled in her education, in the fashion world and the PR world, and established a foundation to raise funds for Liberian refugees.
