动画中声音的设计硕士（M.Des）为研究生提供了一个机会，参与制作应用于电影，动画，电视，新媒体，电子游戏和视觉艺术的声音制作的工艺和创意实践，例如并为学生配备在该领域内开展研究项目所需的工具。该计划通过基于个人或团体的研究来促进原创作品的制作，这些研究在概念上是驱动的，在美学上具有挑战性，并且在声音设计和音乐制作/创作中的使用范围广泛。该课程通过一系列讲习班，固定项目和选修项目，基于讲座和研讨会的课程以及自主学习来提供。程序原理的重点是在理论研究基础上的创新实践之间的相互作用，这些创新实践是通过视觉环境
The Masters of Design (M.Des) in Sound for the Moving Image offers the opportunity for postgraduate students to engage with the craft and creative practice of sound production applied to film, animation, television, new media, electronic games and visual art, as well as equipping students with the tools required to develop a research project within this field. The programme promotes production of original work, through individual or group-based research, that is conceptually-driven, aesthetically challenging and wide-ranging in its use of sound design and music production/compostion.<br><br>The programme is delivered via a series of taught workshops, set and elective projects, lecture and seminar based sessions, and self-directed learning. The emphasis of the programme rationale is the interplay between creative practices underpinned by theoretical research, mediated through the craft elements of sound production within a visual environment. Students will be expected to engage in a high level of self-directed learning, research and independent critical reflection, as well as participating in the taught elements of study.
