Creative Media Production Broadcast Journalism (Extended Diploma)

Course structure

• Before you start

  You may be required to complete an activity before you start in order to help introduce you to the subject. Check back in the summer term for more details.

• Course content

  You will be encouraged to experiment, develop your imagination and express thoughts and ideas through visual and aural media.

  Highly practical in its nature, this course combines the areas of Journalism, investigative research, along with studio and outside broadcasting for both TV and Radio. You will have the opportunity to run our TV studio on a daily basis and will become a member of our very own production company, VIBE productions.

  Alongside this, you will work on producing content for magazines, our social media sites and our newly established radio station as part of our enrichment programme.
  Prior knowledge and experience is not required but an interest in journalism and current affairs is essential. This course is very demanding in terms of the coursework and students are expected to dedicate time outside taught sessions to work on projects and live events. Good organisational skills and the ability to meet deadlines are vitally important to be successful.
