Some specific jobs in Digital Design & Animation
include:
Web Designers: A web designer is ultimately responsible for
the way a website looks. He or she decides how pages will
be laid out, what colors will be used, and how text will be
arranged. Part of a Web Designer's job also involves converting
existing text and graphics (like logos) to an Internet-ready
format.
Web Developers: These people create and edit fully interactive
websites using electronic publishing technologies, such as
Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and CSS (Cascading Style
Sheets). Whereas a web designer is deigns the pages, a web
develops the code that "builds" them.
Desktop Publishers: Desktop publishers combine colors, shapes,
images and text to produce print-ready material. This involves
creating graphics, converting photographs and drawings into
digital images and designing page layouts. Materials produced
by desktop publishers include books, business cards, advertisements,
brochures, magazines, packaging, and more.
Multimedia Developers: Presentations you see on the web or
on a CD are the work of multimedia developers. They combine
text, photographs, images, sound clips and video files to
produce interactive, feature-rich multimedia projects. |
