The Minor in Screen Studies recognises that today's students belong to the networked generation, engaging with film, television, music and video across a range of platforms, from Netflix to YouTube. In a context of rapid change, the Screen Studies minor offers students a solid grounding in conceptual thinking and creative practice, focusing on the love of storytelling and our fascination with reality on screen. In first year, students will learn the language of screen narrative and explore the creative possibilities of screen and sound media. In second year, students will learn new concepts to think about our deep engagement with characters, actors and avatars on screen; they will also explore old and new ways of picturing the world, from festival films to Virtual Reality. In third year, students will hone their skills as conceptual thinkers and creative producers, learning the art of screen criticism and immersing themselves in screen culture.
