Say Hello to Media

Get a taste of life as a TV, film and media student.

18 February 2025

17:00-19:00

Baltic Campus

You’re watching Netflix. You’re thinking, “I could do better than that!”

Then join one of our media courses and we’ll show you how.

Come along to our Say Hello event and get a taste of life as a TV, film and media student. You’ll get the chance to have a go at two 45 minute sessions with our specialist teachers:

  • Media Language – learn the basics of media language before testing out your new-found knowledge to analyse famous scenes from a variety of film and TV shows.
  • Agile Film Making – create a genre-flipping short film! In ‘Dusk till Dawn’ the first part of the film is a generic gangster thriller and in the last act (spoiler alert) it’s vampire mayhem! You’ll have the chance to do something similar and create a serious, cleanly executed news piece to a camera or interview. You’ll then flip to a different genre of your choice part way through – whether you go down the horror, sci-fi or thriller route, it’s up to you.

Plus, you’ll get to see where you’ll be studying, and meet your future classmates and teachers.
