    There aren't many hours per week but you are expected to do a fair bit of reading (which btw I advise you do or else you'll end up studying for repeats like I am now!).

    You will be asked to choose either video or photography and audio for semester 1 and for these classes the group will be split in two. Video students will have Mondays off. You'll switch over then for semester 2. The class will be together for the rest of the lectures (eg creative writing, intro to film studies, media studies, film narrative etc).
    I advise you to get photography out of the way in semester 1. Audio is good but photography is like soooooooo not fun.

    Media Arts is alright like but sometimes you just want to stay in bed and snoozzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzze

    Alright Rebecca, I'm class rep of the Media Arts class that just finished first year. Here's my opinion on what you can expect:

    It's a very 'film-based' course. First semester will consist of Film Studies and Creative writing for that. Half of you will do Audio in the first semester while the other will do Video Production, then a swap half way through. The way we worked it last year, everyone who did Audio also did Photography on a Monday so for one full semester you'll actually have Mondays off. You'll do either Irish, French or German. A grammar class as well as a literature class of your chosen language.

    First semester also included a class on Approaches to Media for us, I'm not aware of any changes but I know that the lecturer we had is gone on a career break. I'm assuming it'll be the same module though. Then in second semester you'll have a class solely based on Narrative Film as well as a choice between Cultural Studies and Irish Media History.

    Overall it's a fantastic course in my honest opinion as long as you're prepared to do work when asked, there's plenty of fun involved, especially in first semester so remember to strike a balance.

    Pros:
    Short hours in comparison to other courses
    Fantastic equipment immediately entrusted to you
    Plenty of classes where you'll watch films
    Aungier St. has eye candy to brighten even the darkest Monday mornings

    Cons:
    I found that second semester we were barely together as a group as opposed to the first
    Exams are after instead of before Christmas
    Library books that you'll need are limited in supply so once you get your booklist, try be as organized as you can.

    Anything else you're curious about just ask away, I'm more than happy to help and best of luck

    Hi I'm doing a plc course in media production at the moment and I'm thinking about going on to DIT or IADT I can't decide yet.

    What's the ratio of practical to academic work? would it be 50/50 or more towards the academic?

    And do they let you just book out the equipment whenever you want just side projects?

    Oh and the language is it mainly geared towards reading and writing or is there much oral work?

    Thanks very much

    Yep it's pretty balanced I must say. Equipment for projects is available readily once you fill out a form or two. It's all state of the art.
