50116 Media Arts and Production 1

6cp
Professional Strand – Media Arts and Production – 100 level

This subject is designed for people who have no or little experience with the theories of the media arts and no or little media production experience. First semester is a time for play and experimentation and learning to work collaboratively. Lectures and tutorials explore non-narrative concepts and work in sound, film and video with reference to hybrid or convergent forms of media practice. Students gain hands-on experience in the tutorials with digital camera techniques and digital audio recording techniques. Allied workshops teach basic digital audio and video post-production techniques. Through two small group-based production exercises, students gain experience of taking concepts to both on-screen and sound/audio presentation. This subject and 50117 Media Arts and Production 2 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.
