Handbook

Overview

In today's media rich world, we find a vast array of storytelling practices. From Facebook timelines to viral videos, news stories and advertisements, a complex range of narrative strategies are used to organize fragmentary images, sounds and memories into meaningful content. In this course you will be introduced to fundamental concepts and techniques of narrative style and structure appropriate to a range of media production environments. The course emphasizes the development of hands-on production skills and you will gain proficiency in the use of audio-visual equipment and editing software in preparation for more advanced study in screen and sound production.

Course outline information is accessible via Moodle for enrolled students.
