Types of Media
Digital Images are organized using pixels, the smallest elements of an image, which are arranged across 2 dimensions (x and y axis).
Image resolution refers to the number of pixels, and it is usually given in 2 dimensions (e.g., 800 × 600 pixels).
Digital Video is a 2-dimensional or even 3-dimensional type of media.
Videos consist of multiple frames stored in 2 dimensions (like images).
Videos also have a resolution and frame rate (Frames Per Second).
3D Images or Models are files containing vector data describing spatial information.
Rasterization is the process of converting vector graphics into raster images.
Various aspects need to be considered when collecting, storing, and managing multimedia files effectively.
Recording metadata and using appropriate file naming conventions is important.
