The television commercial (TVC) is a significant screen industry activity that is used to promote products, services ideas and brand identities. TVC producers draw upon ideas and techniques from all genres of film and video making and often seek to turn social values and trends to the benefit of their corporate clients. The unit aims to provide students with experience of design and production in this short format, within the discipline of client briefs and tight schedules. The practical skills and knowledge gained should enhance student's capacity to critically analyse television advertising and better understand its social, political and cultural function. -- Course Website
