HTML5
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5_video
HTML5 video is intended by its creators to become the new standard way to show video on the web without plugins, instead of the previous de facto standard of using the proprietary Adobe plugin.
The HTML5 specification does not specify which video formats browsers should support. User agents are free to support any video formats they feel are appropriate, but content authors cannot assume that any video will be accessible by all complying user agents, since user agents have no minimal set of video formats to support.
The HTML5 Working Group considered it desirable to specify at least one video format which all user browsers.
QUICKTIME
Quicktime is a multimedia development, storage, and playback technology from Apple. Quicktime files combine sound, text, animation, and video in a single file. Using a Quicktime player that either comes with a Web browser or can be downloaded from Apple or the browser company, you can view and control brief multimedia sequences.VLC MEDIA
Is a free and open source media player and multimedia framework written by the VideoLAN project. VLC is a portable multimedia player, encoder, and streamer supporting many audio and video codecs and file formats as well as DVDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols. It is able to stream over networks and to transcode multimedia files and save them into various formats. VLC used to stand for VideoLAN Client, but since VLC is no longer simply a client, that initialize no longer applies.
ADOBE TV

Adobe Flash Player is software used to stream and view video, audio and multimedia and Rich Internet Applications (RIA) on a computer or supported mobile device.
Flash Player runs SWF files, an Adobe Flash file format for displaying "animated" Vector graphics. on the Web. SWF file formats allow audio, video and several other possible forms of interaction with the end user. Once files are created, they can be played by the Adobe Flash Player, working either as a browser plugin or as a standalone player.
Differences between these programs are VLC allows you to play different file formats and it's portable, free and can compress file sizes.
Quicktime allow's you to combine files with audio and text.
AdobeTV allow's you to purchase products and translate videos which none of the others do.
HTML5 don't use plugins, supports any file format and very accessible.

Task 1A
The theory of sound is pitch, DB, wavelengths, and different types of frequencies.
Frequency is the measurement of the number of times that a repeated event occurs per unit of time. The frequency of wave patterns of sound expresses the number of cycles of the waveform per second.
DB is short for decibel which is a unit used to measure a sound.
Pitch is the quality that allows us to classify a sound as 'high ' & 'low'. Pitch is determined by the frequency of sound soundwave vibrations.
Pitch is the quality that allows us to classify a sound as 'high ' & 'low'. Pitch is determined by the frequency of sound soundwave vibrations.
MP3 is when you compress a larger sequence file into a very small file, to allow digital storage.
WAV is a form of microsoft and IBM audio file format standard for storing an audio bitstream. Eg - computers.
OSS is short for operational support system, which means its a set of programs that help a communications service provider monitor control, analyse and manage a telephone or computer network.
Mid - is a file format which is helpful to transfer data between applications mainly used by developers allowing them to play various files.
The files contain various parameters like notation, control signals and pitch.
Task 1B
Sound waves transfers energy from one place to another without matter.
They consist of disturbances transferring energy in the direction the waves travel.
Waveform - A curve showing the shape of a wave at a given time.
The most familiar AC waveform is the sine wave, which derives its name from the fact that the current or voltage varies with the sine of the elapsed time. ( Example from Google)
Wavelengths: The distance the distance the distance between successive crests of a wave, especially points in a sound wave or electromagnetic wave.
The crest-to-crest (or some comparable) distance between two waves.
Amplitude: the maximum extent of a vibration or oscillation, measured from the position of equilibrium.
Frequency: the rate per second of a vibration constituting a wave, either in a material (as in sound waves), or in an electromagnetic field (as in radio waves and light).
Pitch: the quality of a sound governed by the rate of vibrations producing it; the degree of highness or lowness of a tone.
Sound Generator: Is a vibrating object which produces a sound. There are two main kinds of sound generators. ( e.g.- instruments.)
Task 1D:
Film clip - http://youtu.be/_IZCuGEJ6h0
Scene from Angus thongs and perfect snogging.
Throughout this whole clip there is multiple music choices and sound effects to match the scenario of the scene which is being performed.
For example when the clip first starts the teenage girls are all hidden behind a wall and a beat of slow mischievous music is in the background, this sets the scene and gets the viewers attention easy.
Before (the girl who rings the door bell) the music gets really high pitched and the pace of the mischievous beat gets quicker, asoon as the door is opened the music instantly drops into a slow pace but still a high pitched noise and then fades out with a slow and bumpy beat whistle the characters are talking.
When Georgia walks into this boys room there is a dull few seconds of a low beat music being played.
When Georgia and the boy are sitting on the bed there is a romance song playing faintly in the background while they are preparing themselves on their kissing session.
When they have their first kiss the music beat and sound level stays the same however when they get to the 'snogging' the music which was playing from the first kiss is still continuing to be played but once their lips touch, the music instantly picks up and the pitch of the volume is being increased rapidly throughout their snog.
Their is sound effects from the timer going off in the background constantly as a high digital pitched noise is being played along with shots of a digital timer clock rapidly decreasing in time while the pair are continually snogging along to the pitched noise along with the music.
As the timer is rapidly going down the music changes various times to quite childing fast paced music to show that this isn't meant to be a romantic scene and to let the audience know that what Georgia and this boy are doing isn't serious and that they are taking nothing away from this experiance.
When the digital timer runs out, there is a sound effect of slobber being dribbled out from Georgias mouth and the boys mouth. This sound effect enhances the scene to be 'gross' and can instantly take any romance which could be felt even through the childish music to be taken away instantly!
As Georgia is leaving the boys house, when the door is opened for her to exit the music being played is a fast drum upbeat, as her close friend Elle is next to kiss the boy. When Elle says 'Hi Georgia' Georgia gives a confused look with a sarcastic 'Hi Elle' back.
The few last seconds of the clip is a high whistling beat which shows that Georgia enjoyed her first experience at kissing a boy.
