    Computer monitors display in this color format:

    • RGB

    • RYB

    • CMYK

    • CMBK

    Correct Answer
    A. RGB
    Explanation
    Computer monitors display in the RGB color format. RGB stands for Red, Green, and Blue, which are the primary colors of light. In this color format, different intensities of these three colors are combined to create a wide range of colors on the screen. Each pixel on the monitor is made up of tiny red, green, and blue subpixels that emit light and can be adjusted to produce any color visible to the human eye. This color format is widely used in digital displays, including computer monitors, televisions, and mobile devices.

    When no copyright exists for a creative work, we can all use it.  The work in this case is said to be in what?

    • Fair Use

    • Acceptable Use

    • Public Domain

    • Reasonable Use

    Correct Answer
    A. Public Domain
    Explanation
    When a creative work is said to be in the public domain, it means that there is no copyright protection for that work.

    What is a bitmap?

    • An image comprised of a series of colored pixels

    • An image drawn or printed on paper

    • An image made of lines comprised by mathematical formulae

    • An image where all lines are curved

    Correct Answer
    A. An image comprised of a series of colored pixels
    Explanation
    A bitmap is an image comprised of a series of colored pixels. Pixels are the smallest units of an image, and each pixel in a bitmap image represents a specific color. When all the pixels are combined, they form the complete image. Unlike vector images, which are made up of mathematical formulae and can be scaled without losing quality, bitmap images have a fixed resolution and can become pixelated when enlarged.

    As you know, a linear presentation requires no intervention from the user.  It simply plays.  What do you call a presentation that DOES require user intervention in order for it to progress?

    • Intermediary

    • Interactive

    • Interplayable

    • Interlinear

    Correct Answer
    A. Interactive
    Explanation
    An interactive presentation requires user intervention in order for it to progress. Unlike a linear presentation that simply plays without any user input, an interactive presentation allows the user to interact with the content, make choices, and control the progression of the presentation. The term "interactive" accurately describes this type of presentation.

    These allow you to alter different parts of an image in Photoshop without affecting other parts:

    • Tools

    • Images

    • History

    • Layers

    Correct Answer
    A. Layers
    Explanation
    Layers in Photoshop allow you to work on different parts of an image separately, without affecting the rest of the image. Each layer can contain different elements or modifications, such as text, shapes, filters, or adjustments. By using layers, you can easily edit or remove specific parts of an image without affecting the original image or other elements. This non-destructive editing technique provides flexibility and control over the editing process in Photoshop.

    To follow copyright law using a 7 minute song in your presentation, you would only be allowed to use this much without asking permission from the copyright holder:

    • 70 seconds

    • 30 seconds

    • 42 seconds

    A. 30 seconds
    Explanation
    To follow copyright law, you are only allowed to use a 7-minute song in your presentation for a maximum of 30 seconds without asking permission from the copyright holder. This is because using copyrighted material without permission is a violation of the owner's exclusive rights, including the right to control the reproduction and distribution of their work. By limiting the usage to 30 seconds, it is considered fair use, which allows for limited use of copyrighted material for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, or research.

    • AVI

    • MOV

    • MPEG

    • PNG

    Correct Answer
    A. PNG
    Explanation
    PNG is not a piece of film because it is a file format for images, specifically for raster graphics. It is commonly used for digital images and does not contain any video or film content. AVI, MOV, and MPEG are all file formats that are commonly used for video files and are associated with film formats.

    Color printing is done in this color format:

    • RGB

    • RYB

    • CMYK

    • CMBK

    Correct Answer
    A. CMYK
    Explanation
    Color printing is done in the CMYK color format. CMYK stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (black). In this color model, different combinations of these four colors are used to create a wide range of colors. Cyan, magenta, and yellow are subtractive colors, meaning that they absorb light to create different hues, while black is added to enhance contrast and detail. This color format is commonly used in printing because it can accurately reproduce a larger gamut of colors compared to other formats like RGB or RYB.

    What is a vector graphic?

    • An image comprised of a series of colored pixels

    • An image drawn or printed on paper

    • An image made of lines comprised by mathematical formulae

    • An image where all lines are curved

    Correct Answer
    A. An image made of lines comprised by mathematical formulae
    Explanation
    A vector graphic is an image made of lines comprised by mathematical formulae. Unlike raster graphics, which are made up of pixels, vector graphics use mathematical equations to define the lines and curves of the image. This allows vector graphics to be scaled up or down without losing quality, as the mathematical formulas can be recalculated to fit the new size. Vector graphics are commonly used for logos, illustrations, and other designs that require scalability and precision.

    Extending from the dots along a path in Illustrator, these lines allow you to change the curve of the path, although they are invisible when the content is printed or exported:

    • Anchor Points

    • Handles

    • Vectors

    • Anchor conversions

    Correct Answer
    A. Handles
    Explanation
    Handles in Illustrator are the lines that extend from the anchor points along a path. They allow you to change the curve of the path by adjusting their length and angle. While handles are visible and editable in Illustrator, they are not visible when the content is printed or exported. Handles are essential for creating smooth and precise curves in vector graphics.

    • Graphic page

    • Artboard

    • Storyboard

    • Art page

    Correct Answer

    • Storyboard and Edit view

    • Timeline and Storyboard

    • Timeline and Edit view

    • Edit view and TImeboard

    Correct Answer
    A. Timeline and Storyboard
