FILM TECHNOLOGY: This module will allow students investigate key areas in film technology and the changes that have occurred which need to be understood in order for new practitioners to take full advantage of the proliferation of digitalisation. Through a practice-led knowledge applied approach students will conduct research, engage in tests, and study technology and its application within moving image production in this new digital age. FILM PRODUCTION AND DIRECTION: The primary aim of this module is the production of a broadcast quality short film for distribution at local and international film festivals. Students will gain production management and post-production skills required for their advancement into a specific department on graduation. They will become competent in advanced camera, lighting and editing. Learning is employment centred. Students will gain an understanding of opportunities available in funded short films, local independent features and international studio co-productions. FILM DEVELOPMENT: Crucial throughout the module is student engagement with the process of development from concept through to principal photography. In this module, students will engage in the development of their own short film aimed at the festival circuit. As cinema becomes increasingly interdisciplinary and transnational existing as ultra-low budget, independent, and big studio/television productions, it is imperative for entrants to the industry to grasp the importance of process across different production departments. INVESTIGATIVE TECHNOLOGY PROJECT: This module will provide students with the opportunity to apply knowledge and skills gained throughout the course to a relevant technical query related to technology used within the industry.
