Module overview

Sight and Sound is designed to introduce students to the language of cinema in support of their research methodologies and professional skill sets in the creative industries. Using key texts and self-generated or found visual samples as a basis for teaching activities, Sight and Sound provides a learning platform for students with no prior knowledge of cinema theory who on completion of the module, will learn the usefulness of cinematic studies as a way of strengthening their academic portfolio in associated professional environments.

This optional core module is designed to broaden your studies and provide you with an interdisciplinary learning experience with peers from a range of art and design subjects. The module will provide you with new perspectives and introduce you to themes and practices that can be critically explored to inform your ongoing development, interests and skills.
