In Screen Culture 2, students deepen their study of cinema and screen-based storytelling, focusing on elements essential to the practice of filmmaking. Through lectures, discussion and screenings students expand their exploration of a range of screen movements, individual practitioners and conventions within screen work. Students engage further with both short and long-form work with a view to being able to critically and creatively contextualise screen content. This subject also includes student interaction with contemporary screen industry practitioners.
Intended learning outcomes
On completion of this subject, students should be able to:
- critique and discuss screen content at an advanced level;
- identify key historical and current movements in screen history;
- identify and discuss some key works and practitioners within screen culture;
- research and identify the practice of an industry professional;
- demonstrate professional organisational and communication skills needed to approach industry practitioners;
- synthesise and contextualise research in both written and audio-visual forms.
