Description

The second year project draws together the skills learned on the programme to produce a practical outcome (e.g. film, website, app or game) and a critical reflective essay. The lab provides a dynamic environment that guides students through holistic approach to creative media where technical expertise is coupled with robust conceptual development and critical enquiry. Students will learn the full workflow of a media production and gain a good understanding of intellectual property and how to compete in the media market with innovative work. A pop-up exhibition will showcase student work.

PATHWAY 1: Critical Media with Film – an emphasis on theory, but with a throughline of practical work in film-making running through Years 2 and 3. This pathway will follow the theory modules and all the practice modules in film up to advanced level.

PATHWAY 2: Critical Media with Games – an emphasis on theory, but with a throughline of practical work in game, VR/AR/XR design running through Years 2 and 3. This pathway will follow the theory modules and all the practice modules in games and interactive media up to advanced level.

PATHWAY 3: Media Practice – an emphasis on design in both Film and Games/VR/AR/XR, with options in critical theory to complement this. This pathway will follow all the practice modules in both film and games up to advanced level, along with selected theory modules.
