    Overview

    A project-driven paper that examines creativity in marketing communication, focusing on mobile and multimedia contexts. Develops skills in creative content production, including foundational research, storytelling and mobile filmmaking for marketing and brand communication.

    The course focuses on creativity in the context of marketing communication including mobile and multi-media contexts, and the design of creative marketing content. The paper is a project-driven paper for students interested in creative marketing strategies, and content production with a particular focus on filmmaking. As an increasingly important aspect of creative marketing, videography plays an important role in strategic marketing. In addition, user-generated content now provides a major medium of communication for social and brand-related information. Understanding how to create marketing content and how to use it in a variety of contexts will provide students with contemporary skills that are increasingly sought after by business, academic and social agencies.
