In semester 1 students will be given a series of workshops and lectures and then will be expected (in groups) to produce a 30 second piece which will look at how meaning is communicated in a very short space of time. A five minute piece which will be influenced by urban legends. These pieces are not marked because they are an opportunity to practice, make mistakes and learn. However it is expected that the students will take the exercises very seriously and the work will be screened before Christmas in the Aberystwyth Arts Centre cinema.
Also during semester 1 students are expected, either as individuals or production teams, to start devising, planning and scripting a 10 minute television fiction production to be produced during semester 2.
During semester 2 students will shoot and edit their 10 minute television productions which will be marked. Although students will work on their own productions all students will also take on a specific role within at least one other production group. This means that every student must work on at least two 10 minute television productions. All the 10 minute television productions will be screened at the Aberystwyth Arts Centre cinema at the end semester 2.
