The Guide Multimedia Tutorial
Information Technology and Training Initiative
The Multimedia Tutorial builds on the original Guide tutorial and
demonstrates how sound, digital video(.avi files) and
animation(.flc files) can be incorporated into a Guide document.
Appropriate sound, video and animation material is provided to
enhance the original tutorial theme of cross channel travel (by
ferry not train!). The user constructs their own multimedia
document. The subject sections are
1) Media Control from Guide
2) Planning the Package
3) Creating a Menu
4) Incorporating Video
5) Using Animation
6) Adding Sound
There are stand alone and network versions. Video for Windows and
Autodesk Animator Players are provided as run time products which
can be freely copied. The stand alone version requires
approximately 5Mb of disk space and works on a 4Mb 386/486
machine.
A network version is available and has been successfully installed
and operated at Dundee.
