Description

This course examines a range of media forms with a critical practitioner perspective of how experiences in media shape discussion, exchange and international understanding. Students explore media production and consumption to develop skills in media generation and visual interpretation. The aim of the course is to develop skills in discerning between information and misinformation in a range of contexts. The graphic languages of television, the internet, news print and SMS inform studio projects that develop strategies for typographic design in a range of media for information retrieval in work, leisure and entertainment contexts.
