COURSE OVERVIEW
This course provides an opportunity for those who have an interest in media to explore, develop, and test their creativity within a qualification structure that is stimulating and demanding. The course supports a well-rounded experience, not only enabling you to gain critical and contextual awareness, but also providing you with the understanding of research interpretation, self-direction in problem-solving, independence in planning and production, diverse practical skills, the ability to be critically evaluative and reflective, and offers you the competence and proficiency in the presentation of your work.
A number of students on this course produce very professional and sophisticated final work. Assessment is based 100% on course work; awarded at a pass, merit, or distinction level.

Lessons are a mixture of lectures, workshops, and practical tasks whilst also allowing time for the completion of individual assignments.
