Ken Coker Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 Dear All Now is your chance to play a part in the education process. I've written a module with a working title : Lighting Design for Film, Video and Multimedia Production It does what it says on the can, but I need a snappier title...........something along the lines of : Lighting Design for Sex, Drugs and Rock n' Roll and Film....... No prizes, but the lucky winner will gain immortality.........well, at least until we re-validate. Cheers Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lightnix Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 Lighting Design for Film, Video and Multimedia Production It does what it says on the can...<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Thanks for the opportunity :) How about: Lighting Direction for Film, TV and Multimedia ? Sorry to be boring and unimaginative, but isn't it better to have a course title which accurately describes the content and will therefore attract people who are actually interested it, rather than a sexed-up, whizz-bang one which may mislead people into thinking they are signing up for something else?

Brian Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 If it was a practical course you could use... Flex and Plugs and Scaffold Pole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Lewis Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 Sorry to be boring and unimaginative, but isn't it better to have a course title which accurately describes the content and will therefore attract people who are actually interested it, rather than a sexed-up, whizz-bang one which may mislead people into thinking they are signing up for something else? The course already has a title which accurately describes the content :-) I think the requirement is to name the module itself... i.e. 1/8th of a single year of study. Personally, I quite liked Lighting for sex'n'drugs'n'rock'n'roll....... ;-) Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 I also quite like "Lighting for sex'n'drugs'n'rock'n'roll"!Is this for the SLLET course? When will it be introduced?I've applied to start that course in September/October, its going down as my first choice when the rest of the uni's decide they'd like to reply! grr!

It would appear we are now in a market place.....or something........quite why this means that all module content has to fit into the 256 characters of an SMS message is beyond me too............Cheers Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lightnix Posted April 6, 2005 Share Posted April 6, 2005 Know what you mean, it's just not enough to simply and honestly tell people what you do these days, you have to market yourself to them, with some kind of ritzy-glitzy image. Nobody "sells cardboard boxes" any more, they "market packaging solutions" :) That Tony B. Liar has a lot to answer for :huh: Sorry to drift ;) I think I can feel a couple of suitably New Labour-ite titles beginning to congeal into ideas. I'll let you know if anything comes of it.
