...Discuss the impact that file format, compression techniques, image resolution and color depth have on file size and image quality Introduction: Within this report I will be discussing how learners can use different file formats, different compression techniques, and also various image resolutions also different color depths, I will also display the final sizes and the differences between them furthermore I will also mention jped, psd, bmp, gif and tiff as different file formats. Photoshop file: The first format which I will discuss about is Photoshop format also known as PSD, this format is also the default format for this software their fore it will automatically save the edited graphical images to this format unless chosen otherwise. This format enables you to be directed straight to Photoshop and also grants you permission to use any features of the software, On the other hand the main problem is that you are only ably to open this file with Adobe Photoshop and the file is also relatively large so it may require a lot of space within your computer. Bitmap File: Bitmap images are stored in a format which is known as BMP Format. These sorts of images are built up of loads of small squares arranged in a certain way in order to create an image in a similar way photographs are captured. The file size is also directly affected from the resolution of the image, in other words, If the resolution is high the file size will be larger, In my opinion the main disadvantage...

...Assignment 3 GIF (Graphics interchange format) is a format in which an animation is saved. An animated GIF is a file format used to create basic animations. Some of the advantages of animated GIF’s are that if they are high quality and not pixilated then the animation will appear more appealing on a website; however the overuse of animated GIF’s on a website could leave the animation with lots of images, this could leave the users distracted or uninterested in the website. Also GIF’s compared to other formats have a small file size this enables them to be put on to website quickly and easily. Continuing from this point animated GIF’s have lossless compression this helps the file size to be reduced without a large amount of distortion so quality is not excessively lost. Another advantage of animated GIF’s is that they support transparent backgrounds, meaning that a transparent background can be used on a website instead of using a plain background, this will make the website look more unique. Some of the disadvantages of animated GIF’s are that they only support a maximum of 256 colour pallet so if you wanted to create an animation using specific colour shades then an animated GIF won’t allow this. Another disadvantage of animated GIF’s is that they only work in some web browsers that don’t support animated GIF’s such as they don’t normally operate on a file system explorer but they work on Google Chrome. Software tools available for animation; Layers Layers separate...

...detail how to use Photoshop's Save for web... option. Facts about image formats There are many image formats available, but only a few work on web. They differ in some important properties, and you should learn how to use them best. There are two kinds of image compression, lossy and lossless. Lossy compression means once you decompress the compressed data, you will not get the exact same image as the original. However, this will only be visible at a closer look. Lossy compression is good for web, because images use small amount of memory, but can be sufficiently like the original image. When you decompress a lossless image, you will get exactly the same image as the original. This compression uses greater amount of memory, so at times it may not be good for web. JPEG JPEG is a format name, .jpg is the extension for it. This image type is lossy, and you can control the compression level in image editors. It is good for saving images with millions of colors, like photographs, drawings with many shades, images containing gradients etc. GIF This format is a bitmap, which means it's a grid made of tiny pixel squares. Data about every pixel is saved (so it's lossless), and you can save up to 256 colors. Pixels may also be transparent. GIF may contain more than one frame, so it can be animated. Since image programs can control the exact number or colors stored in a particular image, it is a good format for saving images with less colors, like charts,...

...Animated GIF’s What is an animated GIF? An animated GIF (graphical interchange format) is usually used on websites for their small file size and low quality image meaning they are always ready for playback depending on the viewer’s broadband, due to this they are very useful for sending in emails as they have been compressed. Normally place in banners on website. They have a sequence of pictures that are put together with slight movement between each image. Each image is known as a frame meaning that when the frame speed is set due to the persistence of vision the viewer can only see a continuous video. A GIF can also allow for instant playback/ continuous loop meaning it can appear that the clip is never ending however can still be stopped after one or a several loops then stop the animation. Bitmap and vector? There are two types of GIFs bitmap and vector. A bitmap GIF is composed of many tiny parts called pixels. Because there are many pixels the file size is normally larger because there is more information to store.one disadvantage is that because it is made up of many components once you zoom in you lose the quality of the image. A vector GIF is created using mathematical shapes called objects. These can be edited to move change shape or colour. The file size for a vector GIF is small even if the images are large. One main advantage of a vector GIF is that it is scalable so even when you zoom in you do not lose quality Advantages of an animated GIF? Animated...

...The Digitizing Process: How it works Introduction: With the development of multimedia technology comes the need to provide a system where visual art forms such as drawing, video, and photography have a way to be produced and represented by computer programs. And because computers store and manipulate data in a digital format, the process of digitizing has become central to the world of art and multimedia. History of Digitizing: Digital image processing began with work done through the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California in the 1960s and consisted of digitizing television images of the moon’s surface sent by the spacecraft Ranger 7. Other uses included military intelligence, urban planning, medicine (such as the CAT Scan and the MRI), and of course digital video and photography (Digital Imaging, 1997). Digital Cameras: how they work When you take a picture with your digital camera it splits the light that passes through the lens into red, green and blue, various combinations of which make up all of the colors that we see with the naked eye. Then it focuses this light onto a very small area. Unlike film cameras, that direct the light onto a piece of film coated with silver, digital cameras must convert the light it registers into voltage. It does this by using photodiodes, devices coated with crystalline silicon that produce an electrical charge proportional to the amount of light that hits it. Many photodiodes strategically placed together make up a charge-coupled...
