Learning outcomes |
- It is intended that the student acquires a comprehensive knowledge of the History of Media, with a special focus on the effects of the emergence of digital on culture, on media convergence and on the development of hybrid formats.
- The student must have the theoretical foundation necessary to understand and reflect on the way in which the modalities of digital expression are articulated with Cinema.
- The curricular unit acts as a field for the laboratory experimentation of new formats, and the student must articulate theory and practice in the development of a project that combines the modes of expression and narration of cinema with the logic of digital.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The lectures aim to provide the necessary theoretical framework, accompanied by the presentation of examples considered relevant to the topics covered, as well as to stimulate reflection and critical analysis of students.
The practical classes allow the integration and articulation in the laboratory context of the themes covered in the expository sessions. Through workshops and the implementation of the most appropriate creative methodologies and processes, students can test and anticipate the difficulties they will encounter in the development of their VR projects.
The evaluation in the curricular unit mirrors both the reflection and the theoretical framework with the practice in the laboratory context.
