藉由資訊傳播科技的應用，數位媒體設計得以虛擬團隊的合作方式，整合分散各地不同領域的專業人才，共同完成設計任務。本研究針對業界目前應用虛擬合作之數位媒體設計團隊進行個案訪談，探討設計團隊如何以虛擬合作之方式來進行設計活動，歸納出虛擬團隊的溝通策略與合作流程，並分析數位媒體設計團隊進行虛擬合作之優劣勢。研究結果顯示，運用虛擬團隊之合作成式確有其需求，然其必要性與效益則應考量三個主要面向：(一)團隊建置的目標與成員架構，(二)團隊連結所使用的工賜與溝通資訊，以及(三)團隊設計任務與虛擬合作流程。

　　　　　The development of information communication technology enables a digital media design project to apply virtual team to its communication strategy and procedure for collaboration. This study discussed the needs for building a virtual team of digital media design, and how it works. The researchers explored 4cases to examine the problems faced by each team in the design process. The findings of this study showed that the concept of the virtual team applied to the digital media design is valid and effective. However, a successful virtual teamwork requires the following conditions: 1.well-defined team target and healthy member structure; 2.proper communication tools and design information; and 3.the well-organized procedure for collaboration.
