Students on this course make a range of interactive media projects; combining sound, video, graphics, words and animation with interactivity. In other words, students create projects that you don't just sit and watch but that you have to actively 'play' with or 'use' in some way.
The course aims to give students a good grasp of interactive media production principles, an aesthetic appreciation of interactive media products and an understanding of the contexts of interactive media production and technologies. Also, in order to be an effective producer of interactive media, students learn to understand the changing roles of media and technology and their effect on society. This course is set within a firm professional framework that reflects development and change within the interactive media industries.
The range of courses at The Media School provides an ideal context for exciting multimedia collaborations with computer animators, TV directors, scriptwriters, journalists, music and sound designers.
