Co-creation occurred with Australia’s multicultural broadcaster, the Special Broadcasting Service (SBS) and education communities, through a co-participation model of working more directly with teachers and young people. SBS also established an online learning hub and innovative digital education resources. This article analyses the curation and co-design approach used by SBS in such a partnership to propose five principles for co-design communities of practice involving broadcasters and teachers. Media producers can learn how to co-create with educators’ to meet the growing demands of students and teachers for engaging online education resources, while also furthering their own mandates as broadcasters. This is the first major study of the production and use of Australian public broadcaster online teacher resources.","PeriodicalId":206409,"journal":{"name":"Media Practice and Education","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133723081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data consisted of a questionnaire for students, their written reports, and teacher interviews.

Is it possible, however, to promote the unique pleasures that Virtual Reality (VR) offers without putting people in headsets? Exploring this question, this article outlines research that experiments with new ways of marketing VR experiences based on applying theoretical concepts to a marketing campaign for Goliath, a 2021 VR documentary produced by Anagram. The campaign tested out Baekdal’s characterisation of two ‘moments’ of a VR experience: (1) a ‘macro moment’, which is experiencing VR yourself in a headset; and (2) a ‘micro moment’, which is presenting VR to people without a headset and whom prefer watching others in a VR environment rather participating in it themselves. This article argues that audiences new to VR are more likely to be engaged by promotion for VR if it presents a ‘micro moment’ of VR based on watching other people. We outline ways that the immersive sector can produce marketing for VR that better communicates not just what a VR experience is, but also what its audiences are expected to do.","PeriodicalId":206409,"journal":{"name":"Media Practice and Education","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130747693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This move to have the tool teach itself not only has the potential to sideline in-person instructors, but, under the guise of ‘neutral’ technology, naturalizes the professionalization discourse in video production pedagogy. This discourse emphasizes technical, ‘job-ready’ skill building to the exclusion of critically-minded production activities aimed at analyzing texts or challenging hegemonic representations through alternate production. Via a walkthrough analysis, I track how the Learn More tutorials reproduce the professionalism discourse by navigating users toward specific production practices and outputs. Lessons on Premiere functions including color correction, sequencing, audio mixing tools consistently foreground a technical, ‘how-to’ approach to video production, ignoring valuable ‘why’ questions of meaning and representation. I conclude by calling for media production educators to interrogate seemingly neutral technologies like the Learn More tutorials. By locating these sites of reproduction and understanding the means through which they reproduce the professionalism discourse, instructors can work to negotiate or challenge production tools to better allow critically-oriented media production approaches to take root.","PeriodicalId":206409,"journal":{"name":"Media Practice and Education","volume":"130 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128300765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Taking the project as a case study, the objectives of this article are thus twofold. Firstly, it will critically reflect on the interdisciplinary methodology deployed by the organizers, which combined creative practice with academic discussions associated with cinematic representations of the face. Secondly, it will chronicle some of the many logistical, ethical, and pedagogical challenges faced by the Facing the Mind team in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to a national lockdown at precisely the point at which the project was due to launch.","PeriodicalId":206409,"journal":{"name":"Media Practice and Education","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127965219","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
