Do young people
still watch news
on TV?
Young people in the Philippines are
watching less and less news on
television. This comes as no surprise as
young people become increasingly
addicted to their smartphones. Youth
opt for online sources like YouTube
videos, social media, and games rather
than switch on a TV and watch a news
program.
The country's youth are more likely to get
their day's news about the world from social
media, particularly from Facebook
newsfeeds. According to Datareportal, there
were 73 million social media users in the
Philippines in January 2020. The number of
social media users in the Philippines
increased by 5.8 million (+8.6%) between
April 2019 and January 2020.
It has been observed that young people
are increasingly using social media as
their primary news source. As of the
third quarter of 2019, Facebook and
YouTube were the most popular social
media platforms in the Philippines.
Within the same period, Filipinos spent
nearly four hours each day on social
media.
In 2020, Facebook's user population
was over 800 million in Asia.
Furthermore, it held nearly 93 percent
of the country's social media market
share as of 2020. With this figure of
social media users, Filipinos rely on
social media app as a primary source
of news and other platforms.

MULTIMEDIA RESORCES
• Multimedia is a representation of information
attractively and interactively using a
combination of text, audio, video, graphics,
and animation. In other words, multimedia is
a method of presenting information by
combining textual data, audio, visuals
(video), graphics, and animations.
TEXT
• Text is the most common multimedia element. All
multimedia productions contain some amount of text.
• The text can have various types of fonts and sizes.
Text is seen as probably one of the most frequently
combined mediums in the colorful world of multimedia.
It is usually combined with photographs and video
presentations to augment these other forms of
communication and give a detailed multimedia
description.
TEXT
GRAPHICS
• Graphics make the multimedia application
attractive. Graphics represent non-text
information, such as drawings, photographs,
charts, tables, graphs, etc.
• Graphics are used more often than text to
explain a concept and to present background
information, etc. The graphic medium can be
combined with the text medium.
GRAPHICS
There are two types of Graphics:
• Bitmap images- Bitmap images are real images that
can be captured from devices such as digital cameras
or scanners. Generally, bitmap images are not
editable. Bitmap images require a large amount of
memory.
• Vector Graphics- Vector graphics are drawn on the
computer and only require a small amount of memory.
These graphics are editable.
GRAPHICS
AUDIO
• A multimedia application may require the use of speech,
music, and sound effects. These are called audio or sound
element of multimedia. Audios are sounds that can be
added and combined with all other media types in so many
ways. An audio can function as a musical background to
images and photographs, and even texts. Audio can either
be analog and digital types. Analog audio or sound refers
to the original sound signal. Computer stores the sound in
digital form. Therefore, the sound used in the multimedia
application is digital audio.
AUDIO
VIDEO
• The term video refers to the moving picture, accompanied by a
sound like a television picture. The video element of multimedia
applications gives a lot of information in a small duration of
time. Digital video is useful in the multimedia application for
showing real-life objects. Videos have the highest performance
demand on computer memory and the bandwidth if placed on
the internet. Digital video files can be stored like any other files
on the computer, and the quality of the video can still be
maintained. The digital video files can be transferred within a
computer network. The digital video clips can be edited easily.
VIDEO
ANIMATION
• Animation is the process of making a static image look like
it is moving. The animation is just a continuous series of
still images that are displayed in a sequence. The place
where images and photographs meet video material is
where animation begins. The animation can be used
effectively to attract attention. Animation also makes a
presentation light and attractive. The animation is very
popular in multimedia application. Animation files are small,
compact, and easily transferable, which is one reason why
they dominate the world of the Internet today.
