Content

  • Animation and AI in Media Texts

    This block is standalone but students would benefit from having completed previous Media Studies blocks as these may be referenced.

    This is Block 11 of Media Studies, which focuses on a range of media texts, both print and digital. We have considered history and development including advances in technology and changes in the social roles of individuals and groups in society reflecting on the influences that have shaped media as it is today. So far, we have studied newspapers and magazines, television programmes and radio programmes over six blocks. We learned about their history, how meaning is conveyed by media texts, their production values and the roles of those involved in media.

    In Blocks 7 to 9, we completed our film study, looking at how a film is studied and analysed, including the subject terminology used and the production values involved. We began the study of music video in Block 9 and completed this Block 10. Block 11 will focus on animation and the use of AI in media texts. Students will have the opportunity to share their own knowledge and experience. There is no need to have completed previous blocks, but it will be helpful to have done so as subject terminology and media techniques will be referenced.

  • Course Objectives:

    To understand the history and development of the media industry and how it has shaped society today, with particular focus on AI and animation.

“Just wanted to say thank you so much for this amazing hub. The passion shines through in the lessons - the tutors enjoy what they are doing which makes such a huge difference. My daughter is using the recordings currently, which is such a brilliant resource, being able to pause and go back over at any point to something she needs to refresh on. I wish I had access to something like this when I studied but also for my older girls who are in their last year in high school! I will be recommending the hub to everyone!!”
