Industry Perspectives is a study unit designed to provide students with the skills and understanding necessary to identify and investigate potential career pathways in screen-based industries. Industry professionals present detailed workshops on practical approaches to film marketing and publicity strategies and provide insider perspectives on how to initiate career development. Students will formulate marketing strategies around their own film work. Representatives from screen media and funding agencies will also provide insight into the structure and processes around funding models in the film and television industries. This subject will complement work that students produce in their Screen Practice 3B Capstone project as a basis for practical case studies.
Intended learning outcomes
On completion of this subject, students should be able to:
- identify and investigate career pathways in screen-based industries;
- create film promotional material employing marketing strategies;
- develop a short-film festival strategy;
- interpret and integrate the perspectives and approaches of Industry Professionals in the formulation of a personal career development strategy.
