What are the Media Arts?
In todays lecture we were introduced to Media Arts and the uses, basic principles and elements of the art form. Todays lecture i found very interesting as i have never studied Media Arts before so for me it was all new and exciting. From Mirandas lecture, I gained the knowledge that there are six basic elements of media arts, this being: composition, time, space, sound, movement and lighting. These elements together are crucial for media to represent a story, convey meaning and engage audiences. According to the Raising Children Network (2012), media can actually develop young children’s literacy, numeracy and social skills as they engage and interact with the art form. As a future teacher, I believe that the media arts can be used to engage students and support learning within other Key Learning Areas, including English, Mathematics and History.
