Module UXS-1018:
Creative Practice

Creative Practice 2024-25
UXS-1018
2024-25
School of Arts, Culture And Language
Module - Semester 1
20 credits
Module Organiser: Stephanie Steventon
Overview

This module provides a foundation for further creative practice on other modules, with a particular emphasis on developing creativity. Students will also learn more about the creative industries more generally, and possible opportunities that may be available in the future.

Students on this module will attend a weekly lecture focusing on the following aspects of Creative Practice, amongst other issues: developing ideas, research, scripting for factual and fiction-based production, production methods and techniques, working as part of a team, project management, creativity and employability, and the importance of the Creative Industries sector. These will all be considered in the context of film, television, radio, podcasting, journalism and digital content in general. Students will also attend weekly workshops that will give them an opportunity to develop their creative skills and techniques. They will be able to develop the work they will be submitting as part of their creative portfolio during these sessions. Although the assessments will all be undertaken individually, students will participate in both individual and team-based exercises during the workshops. Health and safety guidance will also be provided at appropriate stages.
