The media is all around us and is one of the most powerful industries in the world. Although one of the most competitive industries, it is also one of the most diverse. This course seeks to broaden and deepen your understanding of the media and the role that it plays in society. You will develop knowledge and understanding of a range of digital media formats leading to opportunities to develop practical production skills. There will be many opportunities for group work where you will develop communication skills that are essential to succeed in the media industry. You will study and learn in a variety of techniques, including individual research tasks and analysis of existing media production; group discussions and productions; contact with media professionals; and evaluative thinking to name a few. You will be working with media software such as Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign & Final Cut Pro as well as learning how to use a range of production equipment. You may well make products for real audiences, including the possibility of exhibiting your work at the Art exhibition.
Successful candidates will be invited to interview and offers made are conditional on achieving at least four Grade 7/A at GCSE. At this stage, we will also ask for a reference from the pupil’s current school.
The BTEC in Creative Digital Media Production Foundation Diploma is a two-year course: • 510 GLH (670 TQT) • Equivalent in size to 1.5 A Levels. • 6 units of which 4 are mandatory and 2 are external. • Mandatory content (76%). • External assessment (41%). When you begin each unit you will be provided with an assignment brief that details exactly what you have to do for each assignment. The hand-in date will be given to you for each interim assessment. You are expected to meet the deadline given so that your teacher can assess your work and provide structured feedback. It is equally important that your teacher has regular access to your work so that s/he can identify areas of weakness either in your work or the class as a whole. This will then inform future lesson planning.
