Module Aims
To enable the student to plan, develop and complete an agreed body of work with respect to their proposed specialist subject area and role;
To develop professional level media production skills;
To enable the student to work within and appreciate industry based constraints;
To develop in the student self-evaluation skills and responsibility for their learning.
Content Summary
The core activity of this module is based around the production of a body of work, previously devised by a student as part of their Major Project Development Package and realised by a team of students.
Student, specialist lecturer and course leader at the beginning of the module agree the students’ production requirements in a learning agreement contract.
Module content is dependent upon students’ chosen idea, their specialist area and their ambitions in the realisation of the project. The module will afford the student competencies in professionalism within production methodologies and practices, including the quality control of the associated techniques and processes.
This module contains a six-week immersive learning element.
This module will also support your development as a sustainable practitioner via engagement with Albert Sustainable Production Certification. Discussions and tasks will equip you with a demonstrable general understanding of the science of climate change and its impacts. You’ll have the opportunity to identify and articulate the environmental impacts of a production, making reference to a calculated carbon footprint; and you’ll propose solutions to reduce the environmental impact of a production. You’ll also identify strategies that could engage audiences with environmental sustainability.
