Film and Motion Design Studio
Moving images are everywhere: television, Netflix, social media, the traditional cinema, public spaces, and even in screens in stores or public transport. It’s become such a crucial part of our daily lives. Through film and motion design, we can tell stories, spark emotions, and open each other’s eyes to fresh perspectives. Therefore, it is important to be mindful of the influence of moving images and understand how you can use visual language and storytelling techniques to create impact.
What’s amazing about these media is that they let us blend old-school techniques with the latest innovations, seamlessly flowing from one to the other. But beyond the tech, it’s all about your story, your idea, your vision. Whether it's a documentary, an animation, a feature film, a short, or even a video projection, we’re here to help you bring that story to life.
Minor content
Set up your own study plan and learn skills such as:
- Pre-production, production, and post-production Scripting
- Video productions
- (Stop motion) animation
Structure of the minor
Within the studio, you work with two different types of projects, each with its own purpose.
Project – Non-commissioned work
During this project, you work on non-commissioned work.
This gives you plenty of freedom to determine your own direction.
That means:
• You do not work for a client
• You focus on your own development, interests, and learning goals
• You experiment, deepen your knowledge, and explore your field
• This work forms the foundation for your growth as a maker/designer
Project – Commissioned work
During this project, you work on commissioned work.
That means:
• You work for a real client
• You collaborate in an interdisciplinary team
• The client project is leading
• You demonstrate how you apply your field of expertise and/or design knowledge in a professional context
Within the various projects, you work on 5 competencies: Creating, Researching, Organising, Communicating and Learning.
Workshops and Clubs
During the semester, you can take part in Workshops and Clubs based on your own interests and learning goals. They can support your projects or development, but do not always have to be directly connected to them. The most important thing is that you can explain what you have learned and how this contributes to your growth as a maker or designer.
Study features
Assessment consists of two evaluations (midterm and final). Throughout the minor you collect evidence in a portfolio. During the assessment, you present and justify your design choices and learning process in a conversation with assessors. Passing both assessments results in 30 ECTS.
You have a passion for telling stories using images. You’re not afraid to pick up a camera or dive into the world of animation (software).
Access to the community for the entire lesson week. Dates and times of workshops, lectures, consultations, feedback sessions and mentor meetings will be communicated at the start.
