Design, Multimedia and Visual Communication

Specific objectives: The course has the main objective of making the student acquire specific knowledge in the context of the culture of multimedia and interactive communication artefacts, based on the dynamic relationship between texts / signs and images. The course must therefore provide the methodological tools to know and understand and develop projects in the field of Multimedia Design and specifically Multimedia Publishing, Video, Immersive and Augmented Realities. The course aims to provide students with the acquisition of the use of multimedia tools, through a theoretical and practical path, necessary for the design / realization of multimedia design objects and to promote an aptitude for transversal design suitable for the contemporary complexity of the communication and use needs. Areas that are intertwined with other disciplines and require both theoretical and critical knowledge, as well as technical. To achieve this objective, significant case studies for the various phenomena and cultural contexts that generated them must be analyzed and multimedia applicative tools acquired. At the end of the course the student must have acquired knowledge and understanding skills, as well as skills that allow to support, from a theoretical-methodological point of view, the implementation of projects of artefacts and / or systems of artefacts in the field of Multimedia Design and specifically of Multimedia Publishing, Videos, Immersive and Augmented Realities; demonstrate the mastery of an integrated experimental and analytical-design approach for finalizing the knowledge and understanding acquired, to solve complex problems as well as being able to communicate what has been acquired in an effective and innovative way. The knowledge will also be verified through the exam itself and through exercises and tests in itinere.
