Amcanion cyffredinol

This module will look at a number of visual media exploring individual texts as well as looking at the organizations that produce them, and the social and political context around those organizations. It will discuss debates about the nature of different media, and explore the relationship between the medium and the text. It will also cover journalism, but focus on visual forms of journalism, including photo-journalism and documentary films. One of the objectives of this module is to equip students with a knowledge and understanding of key debates about the past, present and future of visual media.

Cynnwys cwrs
