Purpose of the Program
This program will immerse you in both critical and creative approaches to film- and video-making. It is delivered in face-to-face mode and comprises three main strands:
- Film-/Video-making: narrative development, screenwriting, directing, producing and major project execution.
- Technical Studio: camerawork, editing, lighting, sound and production management.
- Concepts & Debates: contemporary themes, issues and practices in film and video.
This program accords with the requirements of Australian Qualifications Framework level 7 (Bachelor degree program).
The program emphasises experiential learning – that is, learning experiences that will enable you to develop as a competent practitioner – and features two main work integrated learning (WIL) components:
- COMM2823: Digital Film and Video: Capstone Project, a final year capstone project that integrates knowledge and skills via a project-based learning experience.
- COMM2931: Digital Film and Video Internship, a workplace internship that applies preceding experiential learning to an authentic workplace environment.
In addition to these intensive work-integrated experiences, you will engage in learning activities and assignment work throughout the program that simulate – and are closely aligned with – authentic professional contexts, scenarios and activities.
As you continue to acquire skills specific to the discipline of film-making and video production, you will also develop professional behaviours and attitudes and transferable skills such as project and group work, problem-solving, creative and critical thinking, communication and active inquiry. This will be supported through a range of group and individual project-based learning activities and practical tasks and by engaging with peers and teachers in critical and reflective evaluation of your ideas and work.
Importantly, you will also explore the conceptual and theoretical context of this discipline. This will enable you to situate your learning in a wider framework of thought and critical thinking, and to consider your personal ideas and practice in relation to historical, social and cultural realities.
This generalist program will prepare you for a range of employment opportunities including digital content developer, director, director of photography, online/mobile/social media producer, production manager, screenwriter, sound designer, video editor.
Future postgraduate study options at RMIT available to graduates might include GCert in Business Startups; Master of International Business. Further postgraduate options might include cinema, film, media, communication and cultural studies.
See Approach to Learning and Assessment (below) for more details.

External accreditation and industry links

The proposed academic team has extensive experience in the fiction and non-fiction film and video sector in USA and/or Vietnam. Furthermore, the curriculum is designed such that experienced Industry Fellows or equivalents will support academic instruction via specialised workshops and demonstrations across multiple courses. The School of Communication & Design has extensive contacts with film & video professionals from which to source such Industry Fellows as well as to provide you with formal internship opportunities. The program will actively encourage you to enter high-profile competitions such as 48 Hour Film Project, Vietnam Young Spikes, Vietnam Young Lions. Consistent with other programs offered by the School, an annual Industry Advisory Committee will be constituted which will advise on current and future trends in the digital film and digital video production sector, university-industry knowledge transfer opportunities, employment prospects and real-life knowledge and skills demanded of practitioners and professionals in this field of work.
