Doelstellingen
Together, the Master’s exam project for 9 credits and the Master’s exam project for 21 credits comprise the entire Master’s project, aimed at generating audio-visual artists able to coordinate, structure and execute their own visions or ideas.
In the project for 9 credits the emphasis lies on the preparation, the starting-up and the development of the artistic process in the Master’s project.
In the project for 21 credits, students demonstrate their ability to complete an original film or animation film in a personal and independent manner.
This work must reflect a creative and critical approach to the medium or media selected and to audio-visual art in general.
Students’ achieved skills ensure that they can complete a work possessing sufficient qualities to withstand confrontation in the field of audio-visual art and demonstrate independent artistic practice at the level of beginning filmmaker, researcher or artist.
For their projects, students select one of the specialist areas in the Master’s programme: Animated Film or Film.
Leerinhoud
Thematic, in-depth, investigative and focused on completion of the Master’s programme.
The Master’s project is an artistic final exam project comprising two components that directly affect one another:
A) The realisation of an autonomous film or animated film, a process crystallized and made permanent in audio-visual work presented in the form of a presentation with a public character.
The working process is supported by:
- reflection on one's own work and using these reflections to help guide the work
- making judgments and decisions in an uncertain context
- research aimed at expanding knowledge and insight by stimulating originality and creativity in the audio-visual arts
- artistic, professional standards of working in a multidisciplinary environment
B) A record of the working process
Both parts of the Master’s project are followed in a single working log or journal.
The working log is intended as a permanent report.
It is the record of the work conducted in the context of the Masters’ programme.
In as clear writing as possible, it should comprise and transparently document all the factors relevant to the development through which the audio-visual work has evolved.
This document consequently relates the acquisition and relevance of artistic, graphic and filmic choices, thematic references, theoretical concepts, consulted reference material, story-board, scenario,… and so on.
The extent and the form of this record depend on the chosen area of the Master’s exam project.
The working record is to be pursued to finalized form.
