This module provides you with an opportunity to undertake a multi-platform team-based project to explore the theory and practice of engaging users across a range of platforms.
Additional Information:This module encourages cross-disciplinary teams of students to devise, develop and produce a convergent media project proposal/prototype and present it to a panel.
This module will build on the skills and body of knowledge acquired during level 4 and broaden the students approach to problem solving with a view-point based on practical application. Students will examine a range of technologies and scenarios that employ and exploit opportunities for multi-platform delivery including participatory interaction, trans media storytelling and fan-based culture.
Through teamwork, students will further develop their awareness of the new delivery technologies (their potential and their limitations) and will apply this understanding towards developing a series of visual representations that demonstrate a range of creative solutions in response to research, which address requirements set by their interpretation of the brief.
