Moving Images
The Minor Programme Moving Images focuses on media production and moving images with an emphasis on production and practical approaches, as well as a basis in theory.
This Minor consists of a graphic arts course, a basic seminar on film exercises, and a media production project, as well as language and cultural studies offered by the Language Centre.
This production course offers students an opportunity to develop and apply their knowledge and creative talent from first concepts all the way to a finished production. Thus it includes the packaging of a project and preparing fiction and/or non-fiction formats. As well as creating short screen productions, the Moving Images Minor involves looking at a wider range of formats such as audiovisual installations, cross-media and trans-media storytelling.
