Arts of Sound and Image

Course Type:
Master’s Programme

Programme Introduction

The Master in Arts of Sound and Image wants to provide a solid, broad and indepth background for creators who wish to define a singular artistic practice within the audio-visual arts, to explore flexible models of production and create an approach focused in the chosen artistic strategies, either in a specialized area, or in the passages between several fields.

The Master aims to cover a wide range of expressive modes: from film and video, whether fiction, documentary, film essay or experimental cinema and animation, to the sonic arts and photography, without beeing limited to them. The emphasis of the degree leans toward neither fixed professional formulas nor mere technical expertise, but rather toward a creative and critical engagement over the entire working process. Each student produces an audiovisual work, followed by a report, developed in an interdisciplinary context which aims to provide the technical, formal and conceptual skills appropriated to each project.
