Outreach Talks and Workshops
The study of cinema exhibition offers us a fascinating insight into the unique relationship between the moving image and its audiences. This illustrated talk, suitable for students working in a wide range of subjects - including Film and Media, English, History and Sociology - will investigate the way in which our experience of cinema has developed from the very intimate and personal ‘peephole viewing’ of Edison’s kinetoscope to the truly social, immersive experiences we recognise today. We’ll take in the lavish 1,000+ seater auditorium or ‘dream palace’, the ‘drive-in’ popular with American youths, the bespoke movie theatre and the multiplex. And we’ll consider whether the increasingly popular ‘pop up’ cinema, site-specific screenings and the ‘open cinema’ movement (aimed at extending exhibition to excluded communities) is the future of independent cinema exhibition in the UK.
Students will participate in a session on smartphone photography techniques and learn how to take great portraits with smart their phones. Students will also learn more about the knowledge and skills in all areas of storytelling and how to secure a career using their photojournalism skills.
Students will learn how to work with ideas for multimedia stories from concept, to script, to production. Case studies and examples will focus on drama or factual video, including short form and promotional content. This reflects the breadth of the BA (Hons) Media Production course which aims to prepare students for commercially-viable work wherever visually-led storytellers are in demand.
