Question

Ms. Reena Sharma is planning to gift an animated digital card to her father on fathers day. She wants to include vector graphics, sound and video. But the size of the movie should be small even if it requires additional plug-in to play the movie. Which of the following formats are best suited for this purpose:

(i) GIF

(ii) JPEG

(iii) SWF

Answer 1

1. JPEG format supports only static images.

2. GIF uses bitmap format for individual frame and are less compressed than SWF.

So Ms. Reena Sharma should save the movie in SWF format because it supports vector graphics, sound and video as well
