About the course
Our media department provides learners with opportunities to gain professional skills using industry-standard equipment, taught by industry experts.
This practical course has three phases. To start with, you’ll learn a set of key media skills, including editing with Photoshop and Premiere and how to handle a range of DSLRs and video cameras. Next, you will work as part of a team to create a media project in response to a brief. Finally, you will get the chance to design and create your own media product, which could be anything from a short film to a photo gallery or website.
Maths & English
A key requirement for future progression and employment is a good understanding and application of knowledge and skills in both English and Maths.
Learners who are enrolled on this course that do not possess a grade 4 in English or Maths will also, as part of their overall programme of study, be enrolled on a GCSE English and/or Maths programme in order to progress towards gaining a GCSE grade 4 in both subjects.
