Programme objective and content for the:
professional bachelor in film-Television-Video
In the space of three years, our Film-TV-Video students become real all-rounders, practised in all the tricks of the filmmaking trade. As of Year 1, students discover all the different disciplines: image, sound, editing, directing and production. The course uses a creative and practically oriented approach to tackle both the technical and artistic aspects of the audiovisual world. Theory courses form the basis of practical workshops. In other words, they act in function of practical assignments.
Programme objective and content for the academic bachelor and master in Audiovisual Arts
Students learn how to develop a concept, write a script, direct a film crew, work with actors, and oversee the editing of images and sound… Moreover, they learn the basic technical principles of camera, lighting, image and sound editing. With this knowledge they can manage a team and make films with their own individual stamp.
In the academic programme theoretical subjects are not merely in function of practical assignments. Courses such as Film History, Culture and Media Studies, and Philosophy sharpen the critical mind and bring insight into individual artistic identity.
In the Animation degree, the technical and creative aspects of making an animated film are of equal importance. Students receive basic knowledge of different animation techniques. Drawing skills, recording, editing, sound design and post-production are all covered, as are how to create a scenario and develop a storyboard. In this way, students learn how to develop and realise their own concepts.
Programme objective and content for the master in DOCNOMADS
