Ict Test Revision:

Major file formats:

• Audio: MP3 (.mp3), WAV (.wav), AAC (.aac)


• Video: MP4 (.mp4), AVI (.avi), MKV (.mkv)
• Image: JPEG (.jpg), PNG (.png), GIF (.gif)
Video Related vocabulary:
• Sequence – A series of scenes that form a distinct section of a film, often with a beginning,
middle, and end.
• Shot – A single continuous take from when the camera starts rolling to when it stops.
• Scene – A segment of a film or video that takes place in a single location and time.
• Découpage – The process of breaking down a film into shots and sequences before
shooting, often used in pre-production planning.
• Script – A written document containing dialogue, action, and scene descriptions for a film
or video.
• Storyboard – A visual representation of scenes, drawn frame by frame to plan shots and
sequences.

Resolution & Quality


• HD (High Definition) – Video with a resolution of 720p (1280x720) or 1080p (1920x1080),
providing higher clarity and detail.
• Full HD (FHD) – 1080p (1920x1080) resolution, offering better quality than standard HD.
• 4K (Ultra HD) – A resolution of 3840x2160, offering four times the detail of 1080p.
• SD (Standard Definition) – Lower resolution video, typically 480p (720x480) or 576p (720x576).

Compression & File Size


• Compressed Video – Video that has been reduced in file size using a codec (e.g., H.264, HEVC) to
save storage and bandwidth.
• Uncompressed Video – Raw video files with no compression, resulting in very high quality but
large file sizes.
• Bitrate – The amount of data processed per second in a video or audio file, measured in kbps
(kilobits per second) or Mbps (megabits per second). Higher bitrates generally mean better quality.
• Codec – A method for compressing and decompressing video files (e.g., H.264, HEVC, ProRes).
Audio related Vocabulary
• Bit Depth – Audio detail per sample (16-bit, 24-bit).
• Bitrate – Data processed per second (128kbps = low, 320kbps = high).
• Lossy Compression – Reduces file size with quality loss (MP3, AAC).
• Lossless Compression – Smaller file without quality loss (FLAC, ALAC).
• Sample Rate – Number of samples per second (e.g., 44.1kHz, 48kHz).
