- FILE CORRUPTED - An Experiment In Glitch Art and Photographic CollageGifs are a wonderful way to present short animated fragments of a story or world. They are also, in my eyes, slowly becoming more obsolete as other file types offer better quality and reduced file size. Maybe this was part of the inspiration for this small series of images.

My course covered a hugely varied range of topics within the media industry, from radio production and sound design, to filmmaking, editing, and motion graphics. Practical social skills were also taught, including how to network, write proposals, and deliver effective pitches.
As well as practical skills, there was an equally academic part of our course, which allowed me to dive deep into the theoratical and factual side of the media industry, teaching me useful research methods and structuring arguments in an objectively fair and balanced way.
Our academic work often bled into our practical coursework, such as using our research methods and structured arguments to create stimulating documentaries and short films.
For my final year dissertation, I wrote a 35-page screenplay which received a first class grade.
