CAMI5001: Narrative Elements

2024 unit information

Working individually or as part of a production team, you will conceptualise, develop and deliver a narrative-based screen-work. You will be challenged to re-conceive storytelling through moving image and alternate forms. Possible outcomes for the projects could be narrative film, documentary, online, XR, installation or any combination of media production. Lectures, tutorials, seminars, screenings and class exercises provide you with a historical and conceptual framework to develop your own creative projects. Discussion, debate and creative exploration is encouraged. Projects are to be supported by a set of professional standard production documents and the presentation of seminars.
