Changes to my study programme

 

I’m on my first year studying Film and Television in the University of Chile and it was great but not perfect, I have some subjects that I like it and others that I don’t, the subjects I like in the majority are relationated with audiovisual creation like: camera direction and photography, creative writing, editing, among others. 

The subjects that I don’t like are those that occur together with journalism students. These subjects have a focus on communication or something like that. The truth is that they have varied topics and they change depending on the teacher, even if it’s the same subject.

So if I can do a change into my study programme it would be:

Eliminate the common subjects with journalism, I would create new subjects like:

Firstly, one in which we would have to work together with journalism students doing interviews or a documentary. Film and Television students take care of audiovisual equipment and all these things, journalism students can make the writing process or help with the equipment to learn how to use it with help of the other students. These interviews would have themes to make it varied.

Secondly, one of historical context where the audiovisual media have intervened in a good or bad way. Such as the work that audiovisuals did in Chile to maintain the memory of all the people who were detained and disappeared during the dictatorship period.

This to have greater focus and preparation for the area we will graduate from.
