The main objective of the program is the synthesis between linear kinematic applications for audiovisuals, with special reference to the new documentary, and the artistic applications of new media and multimedia arts.
Theoretical courses (such as Digital culture, Phenomenology of contemporary arts, New media aesthetics) provide students the interdisciplinary conceptual tools that are necessary to understand the complexity of the current media scenario.
The technical courses provide students the methodological and design tools typical of the current media practices. Throughout the Direction, Multimedia design, Shooting and editing courses, participants are supported in the development, pre-production, production, and post-production of innovative audiovisual supports, new objects of communication positioned between art and film, in the new Expanded cinema area, characterized by elements such as: a strong experimental tone; a personal signature that characterizes each individual style; linear and non-linear narrative structures; unconventional stories; a design philosophy that enables the distribution on heterogeneous media platforms; an ethical commitment towards the spectator.
The supporting courses improve the students’ technical skills, while putting the technique at the project’s service (Photography, Sound design), connecting video with contemporary artistic and media experimentation (Net art, Interaction design), and suggesting a further investigation of visual and media technologies.
