Multimedia Specialist

Multimedia Specialists leverage the latest digital technologies to create animated content and games for education and training modules, online stores, information kiosks, websites, and other applications. They work with a wide range of media including digital photographs and illustrations, computer animations, audio, and video.

As a Multimedia Specialist you could be creating digital assets, attending a briefing meeting with a new client, brainstorming initial concepts with the design team, testing an animation on a staging site, or collaborating with a cybersecurity specialist to ensure your latest innovation is robust and hack-proof.

Multimedia Specialists are design professionals as well as project managers. To be successful you will need to be highly organised, able to meet deadlines, and enjoy collaborating in a design studio environment.
