Multimedia/Convergent Media

What We Can Do for You

Maybe you have a great idea for a video or multimedia project, but don't know where to start. Multimedia and Convergent Media Services can help determine your next steps.

Set up a meeting with the professional staff to learn about the design and production process. First, determine the nature of the project, its purpose, the intended audience our professionals will be working with you.

Multimedia and Convergent Media have some overlap, but deliver differentiated services depending on the nature of the proposed project. This meeting will develop the best method that will meet your needs.

The next step is for you to develop an outline, script and storyboard for your project. Although our staff can assist you in learning what these steps entail, you are the content expert in this team effort. We also need for you to identify resources – people and research materials – to be used in the production.
