Learning outcomes
The study in the Studio of Digital Media focuses especially on work with both static and dynamic digital image and on searching for possibilities to interconnect them. During the four-year course, students work with the photography, video, digital animation, and as a matter of course, they are free to overlap into classical media. Individual semesters deal with specific themes. The primary aim of the Studio is to lead students in a way and direction that helps them to reflect a given topic meaningfully, using adequate formal means, and clearly express their ideas. The activities of the Studio are entirely in the area of artistic creation; however, organization of the course makes it possible to give the students opportunity to acquire necessary technological knowledge and experience when fulfilling the given assignments, working with particular programs(Photoshop, Premiere, Flash, etc.).Tuitions also give much attention to debates about current events in contemporary visual art.
- the student is able to employ their experience and skills acquired during the Bachelor's studies - they can perform an analysis of assigned themes in terms of the concept, as well as of possibilities of their technical processing - as part of the studio tutoring, they are capable of discussion with their teachers and peers - they are able to choose suitable procedures and use appropriate means to solve the assigned tasks - they are able to reflect the topic being processed in consideration of their knowledge of contemporary art - they can process partial semestral tasks systematically - they can use digital tools in work with photography, video, and sound appropriately - they manage basic work at specialized worksites of the Faculty in cooperation with experts (audiovisual studio, photographic workshop)
