Media studies is an exciting course in which students analyse and produce films, adverts, music videos, websites, magazines and radio shows. The students study a range of media platforms and texts in order to analyse and evaluate key features of these media forms. They then apply this knowledge, creating their own practical productions. The students must demonstrate skills in communication, analytical writing, making connections, evaluation and investigation. They must also learn and use a media studies lexis, as well as applying a great number of media studies theories in order to explore the relationships between media producers and audiences. The course develops creative, analytical, thoughtful, independent, resilient learners who are capable of understanding the modern world and the media. The exams focus on how media reflects its audience, the institutions behind the media and how they represent our world.
