AbstrakMedia digital telah dikenal pasti sebagai salah satu media yang paling penting di abad ke-21. Media baruini dianggap cara yang paling berkesan untuk mengurus kadar penghasilan data digital yang meningkatsetiap hari terutama di dunia siber. Artikel ini menjejaki evolusi pembangunan teknologi media digital,peluang dan cabaran terhadap pengamal industri. Kajian literatur berkaitan dan analisis kandunganmedia digital berdasarkan bentuk dan keupayaannya (Penerokaan, Eksperimen, Komunikasi, Komposit,dan Pintar) dan mengetengahkan perbincangan isu-isu berkaitan peluang dan cabaran dalam industri.Pembangunan media digital mencipta beberapa peluang baru untuk penghasilan kandungan digital darisegi kreativiti, kebebasan dan fleksibel untuk berinteraksi dengan media digital. Walau bagaimanapun,terdapat beberapa cabaran yang perlu diatasi seperti pemilikan maklumat, hak cipta dan harta intelek bagimemastikan masyarakat digital memperoleh manfaat sebenar pembangunan media digital. Hasil kajianboleh membantu penyedia kandungan digital, pengamal media baru dan juga ahli teknologi komunikasimaklumat untuk memanfaatkan teknologi media digital yang ada bagi mengoptimumkan teknologi mediadigital sebagai alat untuk keperluan mereka dan bersedia untuk menghadapi cabaran masa depan. Abstract Digital media has been identified as one of the most important media in the 21st century. This kind of newmedia is considered the most effective way to manage the high volume amount of digital data createdevery day especially in cyber world. This article traces the evolution of digital media in its technologicaldevelopment, opportunities and practitioners-challenges in the industry. The critical review on relatedliterature leads to five categories of digital media based on their forms, abilities (Investigational,Experimental, Communicative, Composite, and Intelligent) and highlights opportunities and challengingissues in the industry. The development of digital media creates several opportunities to the contentcreator in terms of their creativity, freedom and flexibility to interact with digital media. However, there arefew serious challenges need to be overcome such as information ownership, copyright and intellectualproperty in order to ensure that digital society gain the real benefit of digital media development.The findings could assist the digital content providers, new media practitioner as well as informationcommunication technologist to discover their directions toward optimizing the digital media technology asa tool for their needs and be prepared for some possible challenges.

The animation construction of forest scene is a virtual stand scene visualization framework which uses the related technologies of virtual forest modeling and stand scene visualization, and uses the scene graph technology to manage. This paper studies the influence of digital media technology on the animation design of forest scene. In this paper, the model of virtual stand scene is mainly completed by Creator modeling software of MultiGen company. In order to reduce the number of scene patches and ensure realism, the tree model is designed with OpenFlight tree hierarchy. At the same time, the key technologies of Creator modeling and model optimization are analyzed. The virtual stand scene visualization framework uses the open source graphics rendering engine OpenSceneGraph (OSG) as the scene driver to realize the stand scene visualization. This paper provides a variety of roaming control methods. The experimental results show that the virtual forest scene visualization framework can better simulate the forest scene and has a strong sense of reality.

Nowadays, the use of digital content or digital media is increasing day by day. Therefore, there is a need to protect the digital document from both unauthorized users and authorized users. The digital document should be protected from authorized users who try to redistribute it illegally. Digital watermarking techniques along with cryptography are insufficient to ensure an adequate level of security of digital media. The security of the transferring digital data in the modern world is also a big challenge because there is a high risk of security breaches. In this article, a secure technique of image fusion using hybrid domains (spatial and frequency) for privacy preserving and copyright protection is proposed. The proposed method provides a secure technique for the digital content in cloud environment. Two cloud services are used to develop this work, which eliminates the role of a trusted third party (TTP). First is the design of an infrastructure as a service (IaaS) to store different images with encryption processes to speed up the image fusion process and save storage space. Second, a Platform as a Service (PaaS) is used to enable the digital content to improve computation power and to increase the bandwidth. The prime objective of the proposed scheme is to transfer the digital media between a service provider and customer in a secure way using a hybrid domain along with cloud storage. Imperceptibility and robustness measures are used to calculate the performance of the proposed approach.

In our fast-forward times, the special issue ‘Back to the Future: Telling and Taming Anticipatory Media Visions and Technologies’ examines the future-making capacity of networked services and digital data. Its contributions ask about the role media play in forecasting the future and their part in bringing it about. And they are interested in the expectations and anticipatory visions that accompany the formation and spread of new media. Along these lines, the eight articles in this special issue explore the future-making dimension of new media. As a whole, they provide an empirically grounded analysis of the ways media reconfigure the relations and distances among present, past, and future times. The contributions delineate imaginaries of futures related to digital media. Furthermore, they attend to interventions into the plans and efforts of making futures and they inquire about the creation of differently vast and (un)certain horizons of expectation. Together, the articles share the assumption that mediated futures are actively accomplished and enacted; they do not simply appear or wait for us to arrive in them.
