Media is a practical course where students reflect on the Media in the world around them and create
their own Media products.
Studio Areas explored may include:
– Basic skills production; Action Film & Chase Scene
– Television Soap Trailer
– Basic production skills; SLR filming and filing interview skills
– Lifestyle Television genre
The course focuses on the use of new technology such as digital video and still cameras, video editing,
sound mixing, animation, and image manipulation. By working collaboratively with others on their tasks,
students also gain valuable interpersonal and communication skills.
Assessment
The majority of the course is practical production, however each task will also require students to reflect
on their work in the form of a self/peer evaluation.
Students intending to study Media Studies in Years 11 and 12 would benefit from this useful preparation.
