Professional Strand – Media Arts and Production – 100 level

In this subject, students are introduced to the new media industries. They examine a range of new media practices, and the challenges and opportunities for media producers in developing content for these emerging areas. Students are encouraged to explore ways in which traditional and new media are converging to create new types of content, practices and industries. Basic new media skills and techniques are covered in tutorials and workshops. They are realised in a small new media production exercise. The film and video component of this subject introduces narrative forms and genre. It teaches professional work practices and media production management at an introductory level. Students gain hands on experience in the tutorials and workshops with screen lighting technique and safety. Students develop their conceptual and technical skills through a small group-based production exercise.

This subject and Media Arts and Production 1 complement each other and are the foundation for the rest of the Media Arts and Production strands in film and video, sound and new media.
