In today’s web landscape, multimedia has become more than just an accessory—it’s a core component of creating engaging, interactive, and user-friendly websites. From embedding captivating videos to integrating dynamic audio tracks, multimedia content not only enriches the user experience but also keeps users engaged longer.
In this session, you’ll dive deep into the world of multimedia integration with HTML. We’ll start by exploring the <video>

Additionally, we’ll cover best practices for optimizing multimedia content to ensure your web pages remain fast and efficient. This includes exploring the ideal file formats, applying compression techniques to reduce file size, and implementing lazy loading so that large media files load only when necessary. These optimizations are crucial for maintaining site performance while delivering high-quality multimedia experiences, especially on mobile and low-bandwidth environments.
By the end of this session, you’ll have a solid understanding of how to incorporate rich multimedia elements into your projects, while ensuring optimal performance and accessibility. This skill set will enable you to create dynamic, interactive websites that leave a lasting impression on your users.
