Description
This subject equips students with the expertise to navigate the evolving landscape of screen curation, enhancing their ability to evaluate, programme, and exhibit screen content within diverse industry and institutional frameworks, such as film festivals, galleries and online platforms. Students develop critical skills in assessment and review, learning to discern the relationship between commercial, critical, cultural and emotional responses to screen content and how to apply various standards of merit. Through practical exploration, students examine the interplay between commercial success and cultural impact, and the responsibilities of curators in shaping public discourse. Students' learning unfolds through interactive case studies, fostering an understanding of gatekeeping dynamics and how to measure selection and success criteria from a variety of perspectives.
