Media Arts Project is a creatively demanding subject designed for students who wish to produce a short media work informed by theoretical study. The work should demonstrate evidence of professional skills, critical analysis and creative problem solving. The project can be in any of the media arts: radio, sound, film, video, interactive media or performance, and students are encouraged to explore possibilities in the convergence of media. Students direct and produce their own project work but they are also able to work collaboratively. Students are also able to complete the subject by work on one or more media projects in other creative roles such as sound design, cinematography, editing, animation and web design. The subject develops and consolidates students' professional skills. It also enables students to produce an industry entry-level calling-card/showreel/portfolio. (Note: students aiming to make film projects must provide for their own film stock and processing costs. There are also limits on the scope and duration of film projects to try and ensure that equipment and post-production resources are shared as fairly as possible. As a guide, a drama shot on 16 mm film should not exceed seven minutes.)
