Create enhanced digital media assets
Overview
This standard is about configuring design and imaging software features to create enhanced digital media assets.
Configuring design and imaging software to produce enhanced digital media assets involves defining the digital media needs and identifying software features that can be used to contribute to delivering the final digital media assets required. It includes configuring the different software used for creating and editing 2D, video, animation and audio assets and files, using digital media curation tools. It also includes.
It also includes using design and imaging software tools to organise and manipulate different digital media types often in combination using motion sequences, lighting effects and other tools and techniques to produce at times non-routine or unfamiliar designs and images to meet requirements.
This standard is for those who need to configure digital media software to produce enhanced digital media assets to meet their own needs or as part of their duties.
