What about Adobe Products on Apple. |
Many of the tools used to created and delivered digital media products are digital tools. Digital tools are rather new tools for media people. It was only 5 to 10 years ago that we began editing video on a computer. Web pages have only been popular for about 10 years. These new tools have brought about a revolution in the way that products are created and delivered. The computer is the main tools of people creating digital media, but there is also digital cameras, digital tapes, CD-ROM's, scanners, printers, and others.
The Computer is
the main tool for creating digital media. The computer uses digital
data to process information for the creation of media. The computer
uses "digital"- binary code to process data.
This binary code is a series of 1 and 0 that are processed mathematically
by the computer to represent images, text, sound, video, etc.
