Moving Image
The "Moving Image" design area examines film and animation practices in order to develop artistic and creative works in space and time. It offers a space for artistic experimentation and joint reflection on the moving image as a form of narrative. Dramaturgically conceived and spatially generated narrative structures are created that use different narrative forms or media for single or multi-channel productions.
With a critical eye and courage, students work on the increasingly permeable boundaries between film, video and animation, physical space and virtual space, as well as the possibilities of the fourth dimension. Students can work in a context-related or location-independent manner. However, the works are always based on critical thinking about the major social and cultural issues of our time.
The artistic practice is accompanied by an examination of references from art, film and media history. The established theoretical discourse expands the skills in dealing with technology and content and allows predictions about the changes in dispositives.
