I think the important thing with media studies is to have a sort of click moment where you realise that everything, no matter how vapid, is a product of time and place and culture, and therefore something you can learn from. And that sentence ended with a preposition. Augh. Too lazy to try and rework it, it's hot today.

Anyway, my diss is video based as a requirement of the course; it's a combination of academic and vocational (e.g. production work) media studies, so learning to construct a documentary is considered important. Of course, then I've got the defence paper to write, god help me. Not that I'm a bad writer, but it's so hard to find theory that backs up my work.

Friended you on LJ if that's okay, no obligation to friend back. (I'm rhipowered if you wonder who the heck that person is.)
