4. Your Digital Self


Digital Media is a form of mass communication in our world
·      it  refers to any type of information in digital format including computer text, graphics, photographs, animations, sounds and video.
·       it's the combination of digital technology and creativity, communicating ideas and opinions to our society.
·      it  represents new ways of communicating between people

This video creatively shows many ways how Digital Media can be expressed.


Your next task in digital media is to communicate by using digital images and graphics.

Using Photoshop or Paint as a tool, create a "Digital Representation of Yourself".

This digital representation should communicate through images, who you are, what you do, what your interests are, what activities your involved in, your passions in your life and basically, what you are all about.

Get a vision in your mind of what your digital self would look like
Be creative your approach and display
Use as many of your own photographs as possible
Use Layers in Photoshop to build your Digital Self

A brief tutorial will be presented in class to get you started in Photoshop




Post your Digital Self on your blog site when completed
