ATS3555 · Advanced media portfolio

Overview

In Advanced media portfolio, you will draw upon practical media skills acquired throughout the BMC degree to create a major, self-directed media project that will form a centrepiece of your graduating portfolio. Working individually, or in small production groups, you will create a high-quality media work of Video, Audio, Visual Communications and/or Extended Reality in a medium that relates to your specialisation. Benefiting from workshops that develop advanced skills in post-production processes and reflect industry best practices, you will directly engage with speciality instruction and feedback from guest industry professionals. Media works will be presented publicly at a special event at the end of semester.
