Bachelor of Communication and Media (Screen Media Production)
Video production, film production, and in general, the screen media industry was once characterized by very, very high barriers to entry. Only those with very specialized equipment, connections to Hollywood, or connections to elite film schools were deemed to be ‘qualified’ to make films. The internet, technology, and a general change in the way we think about film has completely changed this once exclusive industry. In today’s media world, each of us can create and share video and film projects, without prerequisites, requirements, or those barriers to entry. This has given way to the growth of everyday video streaming platforms like YouTube, and social media-based video platforms like Tik Tok, where anyone can hone their craft of video/film making and production.
Does this mean everyone can go to Hollywood and become the next Scorsese, or Spielberg? No, of course not. These are generational talents, ones that we can learn from and strive to emulate. But does this mean we all have more opportunities to make a film that ends on being seen globally? Absolutely.
The Global Screen Media Specialization offers students an in-depth look into the world of film, screen media, visual narrative construction and screen based storytelling. Students are introduced to all aspects of screen media production, from story/narrative creation, pre-production, to mise-en-scène, staging, lighting, sound, camera set-up, to directing – and into the post-production process of creating a final screen media artefact. Course work in this specialization is project based and process based, and students will put their skills, creativity and media making into practice from their first trimester. You’ll have the opportunity to work as a writer, director, camera person, set director, and editor, all of which will prepare you for work in the field of screen media and video/film production.
