SCRN30005: The Digital Screenscape

40% - 1500 word essay presented though a blogging platform of the student's choice (due ~mid-semester)
60% - 2500 word research essay (due first day of exams)

So if you've come across my reviews of Film Genres or Hollywood you'll know I kind of have a pre-disposition to loving these subjects. While equally fantastic, DigScreen marks a bit of departure in content. Rather than strictly cinema studies, the subject focuses on the study and criticism of Digital Media. Pretty comprehensively too, I might add.

The subject basically consists of three main units: Unit 1 is on Digital Cinema; Unit 2 is on videogames and play; Unit 3 is on "Digital Selves." It's early, but I'll briefly run through what each of these units entails...

Yes, with screen capture

N/A (no exam)

4.9 out of 5 (yeah I'm picky)

Just a book of readings. They're all posted online, and as the price of the reader magically jumped from ~$15 to >$40, I'd go the online/DIY route.

1x 1.5 hour lecture, 1x up to 3 hour screening, 1x 1 hour tutorial (must attend 80% to pass)
