Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
The module has three main elements that allow for the acquisition of both research and technical skills within the context of a critical examination of different modes of documentary film. Lectures, screenings and discussions enable you to develop historical, critical and theoretical knowledge of documentary film production (LO1 and 2). Technical workshops and exercises impart skills in documentary camerawork and sound recording (LO5). A collaborative moving image project based on substantial research and fieldwork, allows you to apply these skills using an appropriate mode of documentary representation. Group tutorials assist in the research and the development of these projects (LO 3,4 and 5).
|
You are expected to keep an ongoing record of all your research, development notes and reflection in a blog that can be accessed and shared by your tutors and peers.You will receive verbal feedback at regular intervals in a series of tutorials that support the research, development and production of your group documentary project. You are expected to record and reflect on your feedback on your blog using the Tutorial Action form. This process should also help to translate feedback into action points.You will engage in a constructive dialogue with your peers throughout the collaborative process of development and production. This dialogue and the resulting actions should also be recorded in your research blog.You will collaboratively submit and be assessed as a group on a written treatment of your ideas for your group documentary, for which you will receive feedback in class. You will also receive feedback from your tutor(s) and peers on your completed group documentary project.
|
You will undertake two summative assessments during the module. You will be individually assessed on an essay (LO 1 and 2), and a group documentary film (LO3, LO4 and 5). The process of researching and writing an essay will enable you to analyse a documentary film and to critically engage with theory and discourse about documentary film representation. The group documentary film project will encourage you to collaboratively synthesise your theoretical and practical knowledge with research and fieldwork.
