OVERVIEW

The course consists of two independent modules, each worth 6 credits, aimed at providing principles and methods for the design and interpretation of media content, with a particular focus on the visual component.

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

This teaching unit is composed of two modules and aims to provide students with interdisciplinary tools for analyzing, interpreting, and designing multimedia content and visual narratives. By combining theoretical approaches from visual semiotics with practical skills in media content production, students will develop a critical understanding of the languages of contemporary media and the ability to create innovative, cross-media communication products.

TEACHING METHODS

Students who hold valid certificates relating to Specific Learning Difficulties (SLD), disabilities or other educational needs are invited to contact the lecturer and the school’s disability liaison officer at the start of the course to agree on any teaching arrangements which, whilst respecting the course objectives, take into account individual learning styles. 

The contact details for the university’s disability liaison officer are available at the following link: https://unige.it/commissioni/comitatoperlinclusionedeglistudenticondisabilita.
