In this course you will examine technical, historical and theoretical aspects of video art practice. The course encourages you to develop a critical dialogue between your practice and the history of video art, as they relate to installation and screening-based modes of exhibition. Through a series of exercises and a program of integrated screenings, class discussions and gallery visits, the practical demands of video production will be contextualised. You will develop capacities in the processes of video technology and production relevant to your studio practice. The material covered reflects the breadth of moving image production and draws upon examples from cinema, television, video art and examples of video technology in the home, work and public arena.
