Making in the Cultural and Creative Industries (V4062)

15 credits, Level 4

Spring teaching

This module focuses on the process of creating work in the Creative Industries, introducing the tools and skills needed by cultural workers today. 

We’ll be joined by industry experts from Brighton Festival, who will discuss the practical aspects of their work, using real-world examples. You’ll also have hands-on opportunities to practise using these tools through exercises that will help you produce high quality work for the rest of your degree.

Contact hours and workload

This module is approximately 150 hours of work. This breaks down into about 22 hours of contact time and about 128 hours of independent study. The University may make minor variations to the contact hours for operational reasons, including timetabling requirements.

We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2025/26. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
