The future is happening now
Digital Media is part of the computer revolution that we experience daily. It includes the production of software and programmes for computers, websites, CD Rom's, DVD's, digital television and global telecoms. Magazines, books and all forms of advertising use digital media in some stage of their production.

What's involved?
What's it like working in this area?
More and more digital media companies are setting up in response to the demands of the marketplace so you may get to work in an office/studio environment with other people who are doing similar things to yourself. Keeping up with the speed of change within the technologies is vital, as is being able to motivate yourself and to work to your own deadlines. Traditional media organisations now often demand digital/new media skills.
