Why study Media, Entertainment & Gaming in Australia?

Media, entertainment and gaming focus on creating and delivering content that audiences watch, play and listen to. Production specializations include Film Production, Television Production, Animation, Visual Effects and Sound Design, while game-focused routes cover Game Design, Game Development, Game Programming and Game Art.

Students learn through production: writing, shooting, editing, modelling, coding and testing work in teams that mirror professional pipelines. Business-oriented specializations such as Entertainment Management, Music Business and Esports Management cover rights, distribution, marketing and audience development.

The subject suits creative students who also enjoy technology and collaboration and are prepared to build a portfolio or showreel. Entertainment is produced and consumed internationally, and studying abroad can connect students with different production hubs, festivals and studios. Understanding audiences, and how content is financed and distributed, is also part of most programmes.
