Diploma of Interactive Digital Media

What is: Interactive Digital Media?

Interactive Digital Media involves a number of technologies that allow visual and audio media to be combined in new ways of communication for entertainment, education and advertising purposes.  Today’s modern societies are strongly influenced by various multimedia productions that touch each of us in many different ways in our professional and personal lives – it may be a computer program, an iPod or iPhone app, the latest console game or an interactive business website.  In recent years, the scope of multimedia has taken on different meanings to an ever increasing audience and will continue to evolve as new technologies and applications develop.
