Brief Description of the Programme

This programme offers students a balanced study of practical and theoretical disciplines, allowing them to develop skills in moving image production, as well as conduct investigations into theoretical principles and regulatory issues relating to industries in this area. The course is split into four semesters, two per year. The first year includes team work and personal study production, with second year studies focusing on individual planning and production. Students can take the opportunity to work alone or lead a Production team during practical projects. Practical work is undertaken in a digital environment. Study is predominantly made up of lectures and production for factual and fictional programmes.

Distinctive Features of the HND

The HND Media Moving Image is an exciting course which provides the opportunity for students in the field of moving image to experience learning in modern purpose-built facilities. The course develops students’ own skills as well as promoting a ‘cultural’ approach through the study of existing moving image products. The emphasis of the course is upon the practical application of all related moving image production skills, including the pre-production planning and development. Strong links have been established with local production companies and providers of services to national companies, and with organisations and bodies in need of moving image products. The course will utilise these fully to provide real production opportunities for students. The College has well resources courses at advanced level in Media Studies, and has invested in a wide range of editing and filming equipment. The course is delivered by a team with broad educational and industrial experience.
