Summary
The MDes in Sound for the Moving Image provides an academic framework for postgraduate students to engage with the craft and the creative practice of sound production applied to film, animation, television, immersive media, electronic games, theatre and sonic art as well as equipping students with the tools required to develop a research project within this field. The programme promotes production of original work, through individual or group-based research, that is conceptually driven, aesthetically challenging and wide ranging in its use of sound design and music production/composition.
Students will develop the capability to respond confidently to conceptual challenges that arise through their creative practice as well as having attained a high level of technical ability in the application and use of tools for sound and music production for moving image contexts. Students will also become closely familiar with the theoretical and historical framework of sound for the moving image in tandem with the ability to contextualise their own work within this framework.
This programme prepares students for three main pathways: entry into a professional sound production environment, independent creative arts practice or further academic study by research.
Current trends and emerging methodologies in professional practice are highlighted by a guest lecturer programme bringing students into contact with established practitioners within the field of sound for picture.
