Moving Image

Coursework

The course structure requires you to complete a cohesive sequence of core units of study, supplemented by a range of electives. A capstone unit in the form of a moving image project allows you to unite the major themes of the course.

As part of your studies, you will also complete one core elective unit which is a compulsory praxis component of study. This may be undertaken as:

(a) an industry placement;
(b) a professional project that delivers your final moving image project in one of several professional industry formats; or
(c) a research project consisting of an academically rigorous written component that assists you to prepare for a higher degree research pathway.

This course is part of an embedded sequence including the graduate diploma and master’s degree.
