Media
In Media we intend to help students to become discerning consumers of a range of media products, with the ability to recognise the ways in which the media manipulates the consumer. Our students develop their analytical skills whilst investigating how and why media texts are constructed in order to create “profit and power”. The impact on audiences is also explored across a range of different media platforms. They will also develop their practical skills to create realistic media products responding to an industry style brief.
