OverviewThis course provides an equal mix of video production and music technology studies with a very practical focus. You will learn how to develop your creative abilities and produce audio work to a high professional standard.
Why choose this course?Year one acts as a foundation to help you develop a general base of skills and technical knowledge. In year two, you will be able to broaden your range of skills, develop your creative abilities and produce audio work to a high professional standard. Year three allows you considerable creative freedom to plan and realise significant audio or video projects.
Graduates will have a strong understanding of the relationship between theory and practice. This will enable practitioners to have an understanding of the historical and current role of their work within a cultural context, and the more theory-led graduates have practical experience of the creative audio and filmmaking process.
During the course, you will work on live studio production, documentary and fictive drama projects.
