Post 5- Digital Media.

Digital media are usually electronic media that work on digital codes. Digital media such as digital audio, digital video and other digital content can be created and distributed via digital processing machines. Digital media is a vast change from the previous analog media. Cellular phones, digital videos, televisions, Internet, video games and consoles as well as computers are all digital media products. With the ever growing use of such products, several companies are offering training in digital media.
The Digital Media Academy offered at Stanford University for both adults accredited courses and summer camps for kids all over North America is a great way to develop skills that are needed to gain employment in the industry.

The News Limited company is currently acquiring people over a data/media analyst position in their company. A data/media analyst has a significant role in the sales process within the Network Sales team. The purpose of the role is to provide research and analysis to the advertising sales team to provide support their ideas and proposals for advertisers. The position requires a high degree of numeracy, present data in a compelling way, deliver multiple requests on time and obtain good interpersonal skills. It would be a challenging job but one that offers a wide variety of challenges.

An Instructual Designer is a creative role that will place the applicant at the forefront of the course development process to instructively design a broad range of online courses. This role requires a great knowledge of the multimedia principles of learning as well as a creative mind to ensure the programs are engaging and instructively sound. It would be a very rewarding job knowing that the programs which you have designed are assisting people to learn and possibly assist in gaining employment.

A Technology Manager's role is to over see the technology development and support for NewsPix and Newsphotos platforms as well as third party distributors.
Initially the role is to ensure the smooth running of the project but as you become experienced in the role, designing and delivering two prominent sites on news platforms with the aid of a Software Architect is expected. This is a great opportunity to join an innovative company and gain further experience in the digital media industry.

These roles are highly competitive and gaining employment is tough. However the ever increasing use of digital media across the world are ensuring more employment opportunities.
