Edinburgh College of Art

This innovative programme offers the best of studio-based design learning and provides opportunities for you to develop skills and insights in the creative use of design practices and technologies for digital media across a range of uses and platforms. You will: - acquire wide skills in creative digital techniques - investigate practice contexts for application across the arts, entertainment, performance and industry - probe the social, cultural and commercial implications of such developments - work together, and with colleagues across the world on the online counterpart of this programme, to realise imaginative design outcomes. Digital media technology is at the heart of modern life. At work, in education, in leisure and entertainment, even in sport, digital tools and devices are everywhere. How we communicate, our social life, the core of our society, is now based on digital media. Design also continually shapes contemporary experience. The products and services we use, the environment we inhabit, the information we use, or are presented with, are all designed with specific intent. Things that are not themselves digital are commonly designed digitally. Digital design requires a multi-perspective approach to developing media and interactive experiences, and this programme deals with the complex relationships between design and digital media. Our programme is practice-led and there are significant demands on our students to create innovative design for, and with, digital media and technologies across a range of creative contexts that can include: - visual design - user interface design - user experience design - interactive media - mobile web applications - animation - game design - augmented reality - virtual environments
