I$\text{'}$m studying multimodal deep learning and I$\text{'}$m interested in learning how to process images and text simultaneously using Python. Can you provide a code example and explanation for implementing a basic multimodal deep learning model that combines image and text inputs? Please include:

A sample Python code snippet

An explanation of the key components in the code

A brief discussion on how the model processes both image and text data

Any important considerations or best practices when working with multimodal deep learning

Thank you for your help in understanding this exciting field of AI$!$
