    MA in Film Studies

     

    “Having a Master’s degree from Victoria gave me the ‘x-factor’ when I was transitioning into teaching.”

     

    Victoria gave me an edge

    Since I left Victoria in 2012 I’ve moved into secondary teaching. I currently teach English and Media Studies at Wanganui Collegiate School. It was always my plan to bring the expertise I gained at Victoria back to my hometown despite the fact there were fewer jobs in my specific subject areas. Having a Master’s degree from Victoria gave me the ‘x-factor’ when I was transitioning into teaching and I’m convinced it was one of the reasons I was appointed.

     

    Using the skills I learnt

    During my Masters in Film Studies I developed a lot of skills that I now use to help my students. Every student is different and will have their own way of approaching a task. This is something my supervisors at Victoria understood when they worked with me and it’s fantastic to be able to take on that ‘mentor’ role myself. It’s so gratifying to watch a student conceive of an idea and then watch them see it through to completion.

     

    Lasting relationships

    I loved studying at Victoria because it is a hugely stimulating environment. Because you are surrounded by like-minded individuals and passionate faculty staff you can’t help but be inspired and motivated to learn. I met my best friends while studying at Vic because so many of us had chosen to study there for similar reasons. The thing I liked most was that faculty staff developed meaningful relationships with the students and made time for us. I always felt comfortable approaching them about things I was working on and it was not uncommon to sit and have a coffee with them at the campus café!

     

    Love Wellington

    Wellington is a great place to study because it really ‘gets’ creative people – they’re everywhere and the city gives them a space to thrive. On a practical level it’s easy to get around, since the city is so compact you can walk everywhere and explore the hidden gems the place has to offer. It’s become cliché to say that Wellington is the cultural capital of New Zealand but it really is…the place just has ‘heart’.

Dr Miriam Ross
Senior Lecturer in Film

"Victoria is the ideal place to undertake this work as it is surround by the vibrant Wellington film community" 

Love Film

I love teaching film because I am fascinated by the way we use film technologies to tell stories about who we are and the world around us. One of the things I find really exciting about the Film Programme is that we not only ask students to study the way these processes work in traditional form, such as the essay, but also in cinematic form. This ranges from asking students to produce their own creative works to presenting academic arguments using audiovisual tools.

 In the heart of the film industry

Victoria is the ideal place to undertake this work as it is surround by the vibrant Wellington film community. On our doorstep, we have big-budget film productions as well as low budget community events such as the 48 Hours film competition.

Never stop learning 

I am enthusiastic about the ongoing changes in film technology and have previously undertaken research on 3D cinema, GCI and mobile phone film making. My new project is on virtual reality and its cinematic applications. This includes making some of my own virtual reality work.

  •  Paul Seiler (Unlicensed) Content Fairy (Unlicensed) From Tim: "Second, we notice that one of the starting dates for the Graduate Diploma is in November. We don’t offer courses over the summer that students could take for either the GDA or the PGDA. I realise that this is probably a FHSS page/link, but is there any way of altering this?"
