Screen Production 1 - MAS212

This unit is subject to a quota. Limited places are available. Please refer to the Faculty for further information

This unit introduces students to professional screen production craft skills, with a focus on creative cinematography, visual style and editing. Students will develop research, conceptual, collaborative and technical skills through participation in two compulsory six-week modules: Editing & Visual Style (Module 1) and Cinematography (Module 2). The unit will be delivered through technical workshops, in-class and out-of-class exercises, equipment and software demonstrations, selected case studies and screenings as well as weekly lectures. The general focus of the teaching and learning in this module is ‘hands-on’ and experiential. Students will be required to generate original digital images when completing coursework assignments. MAS 212 aims to develop students’ ability to critically analyse and evaluate their own work in relation to film industry professionals, and to place it within an historical, creative and theoretical context.
