Module Content
Outline Syllabus:Students will create a short piece for camera and one for audio (radio or podcast) to a given brief. Students will be required to develop their work (which may be a team of writers) by negotiation with technical students and the tutor (in role of director or producer). Students will also investigate the creation of some writing, in the form of an adaptation of existing text for camera or audio. A critical commentary, analysing differing narrative demands, supports this work.
