Unleash your creativity with this 12-week experimental video art course. Perfect for new or existing creatives looking to learn new skills or add more artistic elements to their productions!

What will you learn on this course?

Taught by an experienced multidisciplinary artist, you will be guided through tutor-led demos and set tasks which will introduce particular tips and techniques. The course will cover:

• How to make video art and creative content
• Filming and Live Video techniques
• An introduction to projection mapping and VJing
• Creating live animation with VFX
• Methods for quickly and effectively making your own promos

You will work in MAC’s dedicated media studio, experimenting with cameras, computers, mobile phones and video devices, and use a range of digital and analogue hardware and software to create new work.

This is a practical course taught through demonstrations and guidance from the tutor along with hands on experience.
