Learning outcomes |
Multimedia Direction and Production curricular unit has as its main goal to develop the ability to conceive, plan, prototype systems and applications of Multimedia Design involving interfaces and audiovisual contents, either dynamic or interactive.?Knowledge about the complexity of contemporary project production in the field of Multimedia and in the large spectrum of Digital Media, in their diverse content typologies, editing and publishing platforms, frames the main learning objective of the practical component in laboratorial studio. This frameset identifies the need for the students to develop diverse technical skills related with Multimedia project production.
Teamwork processes and project management skills are essential objectives to be developed by the students as well. This approach helps students to identify their aptitudes and prepares them for the collaborative and competitive dimensions in the context of professional production – characterised by skills diversity and high level of demand in terms of technical and personal performance

Syllabus |
• Multimedia Projects Directing, Production and Distribution
• Audiovisual Production New Paradigm: Digital Cinematography, DSLR cameras and mobile video
• Procedural Design and Interaction: the code as creative matter for design; generative contents; complex interactive systems
• Multi-Platform contents and formats: Responsive Design and Transmedia Production
• Interface Design: research, sketching e prototyping
• User Experience Design
• Digital Media Market, Funding and Distribution models: Communication and Digital
• Sprint Design Methodology
• Project Lab: Individual project
• Multimedia Team Project Presentation and Publishing
The idea beneath the curricular unit programming is to give the students a broad and updated knowledge on production models, conceptual characteristics and techniques involving contemporary Multimedia and Digital Media production.
This will inform them in their conceptual thinking and creative action. The use of tools and editing platforms its essential for the student’s development of technical skills, also to integrate methodologies and aesthetics common to contemporary project practice. A strong component in the area of creative management and collaborative creation processes will also be part of the learning objectives and essential for the development of the student’s inter-personal skills relevant in the contemporary creative production ecosystem.
