The unit builds upon the technical skills and media experience established in the first semester to consider larger forms, dramatic scenarios and the feature film. This is a practice-led unit, taught by a guest tutor professionally active in the industry. Sessions consider responses to narrative techniques, genre, acting, larger-scale compositional architecture, orchestration and sound synthesis. The unit includes an introduction to the media-music business world, including issues such as making a pitch, working to a budget, and approaches to self-promotion in the industry.
