Module Content & Assessment
| Indicative Content |
|
Shooting and Editing Productions
Enabled by the skills learned in Cinematography and Post Production students will go out to create on-location video productions for a specified audience.
|
|
Pre-Production
Productions will be shot off-campus with outsourced actors, meaning there will be a strong need for higher pre-production skills. Locations need to be secured, talent screen tested, risk assessments completed etc.
|
|
Audio Production
An advanced ability to record dialogue, atmospheric audio, and foley in order to mix together a more professional soundscape.
|
|
Critical Evaluation
Students cognitively learn from assessing their productions and their role within through reflective, critical analysis. Learning outcomes must be discussed and an awareness of what should be done in future will be flagged by students.
