Description
With a duration of four semesters, the study course “Master of Arts in Media Dramaturgy” is offered by the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz. It provides in-depth knowledge of the history, aesthetics and theory of audiovisual media with a focus on the moving image.
The focus primarily falls on the cross-media examination of dramaturgical functions and staging strategies and is dedicated to aesthetic patterns and narrative forms in a cross-media context that ranges from film, television and theater to radio and acoustic art to games and web-based narrative forms. By including practical transmedia interfaces and change processes the program enables the critically reflective research into a wide range of media formats. The graduates also have the opportunity to gain insights into practical media work processes and specialized areas such as media law and media management.
