BA (Hons) Moving Image Production
COURSE DESCRIPTION
This innovative and unique course offers you the opportunity to
develop your knowledge, technical skills and creativity in Moving
Image Production. Not only does the course give you the opportunity
to acquire specialist skills in the areas of devising and writing
for screen, cinematography, and directing and editing, but the
exciting range of modules on offer also prepares you for the
multi-skilled demands of production company work.
This course will allow you to engage in all phases of
the production process, from script to screen, with the emphasis on
reinforcing awareness of technical and aesthetic innovations and
developments in the ever-changing world of digital
film-making.
You will also have opportunities to collaborate across
different creative areas in the faculty and work on projects
together with actors, dancers, musicians and music technologists -
a feature that most film/media production related courses are
unable to offer in-house.
Not only will you learn the principles and conventions of
narrative film making, the course will also encourage the
exploration of more experimental forms of Moving Image media such
as installation works, art films, animation and music video
production.
