As one of three mandatory units, you will meet and engage with all students across the UAL Study Abroad programme from CSM, LCC and LCF to build networks, and creative communities.  In this project you will orientate yourselves in small teams, to collaborate and develop your proposition and presentation skills. In pairs you will pitch a speculative exhibition proposal delivered as a Pecha Kucha visual presentation.  By being an active researcher, acknowledging what has come before you, you will explore and examine a wide cross section of relevant and \/ or unexpected areas of interest. This will eventually act as the foundation of this unit, to make positive and impactful social change.  You will participate in a series of online lectures as well as guided visits, exhibitions in museums and art galleries around London, cultural centres and dynamic geographic landmarks each week. You will note take, annotate, and sketch in a research journal to document ideas and contextualise what creativity and culture means to you. This sketchbook will also connect to your London Cultural Studies research. Being critical is key.  Knowledge of the past allows for a considered understanding of why things are the way they are today, which in turn informs an intuition with which to predict future trends, cultural awareness and zeitgeist.  *Read more here about how UAL defines social purpose within creative practice.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<section id=\"communications\" class=\"acf-block bg-white\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 col-md-4\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"block-academics-courses__title\">Communications<\/h2>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 col-md-8 col-xl-7 offset-xl-1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion\" data-limit=\"3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"block-accordion__button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBrand Storytelling\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t(2 credits)\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item-content DOM-slider-hidden\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item-content-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size block-academics-courses__meta-item\">Course Code: LCC Core Course Unit 3<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size block-academics-courses__meta-item\">Instruction Language: English<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size\">Storytelling is at the heart of everything we do. From ideation to execution, your Brand Storytelling unit will look at the fundamentals of storytelling and how brands utilise this to engage with their intended audiences. Case studies from brands across all industries including consumer, charity, media, third sector, and celebrity will be up for discussion.  The unit will also explore the increasing importance of ethics in branded communication and how brands are engaging with their audiences in ethical, authentic and considered ways. In addition, it will also look at how brand storytelling can be used to raise awareness and engage audiences in social justice issues.  One session will be fully dedicated to the concept role of \u2018subvertisment\u2019 and how established branded messaging can be challenged.  This will be a practical unit where students will explore new and emergent commercial communication approaches through digital, experiential, social and traditional print media formats. You will engage in topics around understanding your audience, tone of voice, creative writing, ideation, planning, and 360-degree campaigns. The unit is designed to complement the other core units, Introduction to Media Communication and Creative and Technical Skills.  You will develop a creative 360\u00b0 campaign for a brand of your choice, demonstrating your ideation, understanding of your audience and market, creative storytelling, and selection of effective channels. Your campaign will comprise of 3 visual assets of your choice and a 500-700-word summary of your campaign explaining your creative process and justifying your choices to achieve your individual framework.  The visual assets could include (but are not limited to):  \u2022A poster \u2022A brand activation \u2022Social media posts \u2022A piece of audio \u2022A piece of film \u2022Stickers, badges, totes etc \u2022Social media assets like filters or challenges<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"block-accordion__button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCreative and Technical Skills\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t(2 credits)\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item-content DOM-slider-hidden\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item-content-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size block-academics-courses__meta-item\">Course Code: LCC Core Course Unit 2<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size block-academics-courses__meta-item\">Instruction Language: English<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size\">This practical unit will introduce you to the foundations of engaging audio and visual content, key skills for all media students. The unit will explore the creative process, and will develop your skills from idea generation through to realisation and execution. It will begin with the essential techniques required for ideation and imagination from brainstorming to creative thinking. Discussions around audience understanding, tone of voice, and strong messaging will allow you to formulate a clear plan.  You will then be introduced to the core technical skills needed for visual and audio content creation. You will have the opportunity to explore different types of film making; experiment with cuts and shot styles; produce various audio recordings; and develop your editing skills.  The unit introduces and supports you to develop your imaginative capacities as well as your creative skills. You will be expected to work in groups and individually, as both are important in the creative process, and for enabling you to reach your full creative potential. Upon completion of this unit, you will be prepared to create audio and visual assets that respond to a client brief. Examples of weekly topics include,  \u2022Principles of engaging content \u2022Telling stories that matter using the 4Cs \u2022Introduction to film language \u2022Tone of voice \u2022The role of podcasting in the current landscape \u2022Preproduction research and planning \u2022Storyboarding and shot lists \u2022Editing techniques, styles, and rhythms \u2022Building narratives through editing \u2022Each week will have practical sessions where students can utilise the equipment and experiment.

As one of three mandatory units, you will meet and engage with all students across the UAL Study Abroad programme from CSM, LCC and LCF to build networks, and creative communities.  With LCS you will take creative risks, start conversations with people to find out about their lives, form new opinions, and energise your research methods with these newfound skills acting as city explorers and investigators.  We encourage you to explore all London has to offer from inspirational, historical, knowledgeable, and \u2018alternative\u2019 perspectives. You will learn about subcultures, genres, trends, as well as safely navigating yourself within a cultural capital city.  Lectures and conversations with your tutor and classmates will discuss the idiosyncratic behaviours, cultural attitudes and curious customs that make a city unique. As well as London, you\u2019ll learn and draw wider inspiration from the sense of \u2018Britishness\u2019, always encouraged to think, listen, and speak critically.  Most LCS classes are predominantly field trips. You will do several visits, guided walks, and tours, going behind-the-scenes of unfamiliar spaces and areas to gain personal and fresh insight of this historically complex, challenging, creative city.  You will develop a personal body of research and experiences, which you will take forward as a memento of your time in London, to embed new ideas, values, and disruptive actions into your own creative practice, and beyond.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"block-accordion__button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tUnderstanding Contemporary Cultures\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t(2 credits)\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item-content DOM-slider-hidden\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item-content-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size block-academics-courses__meta-item\">Course Code: Required<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size block-academics-courses__meta-item\">Instruction Language: English<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size\">The aim of Understanding Contemporary Cultures (UCC) is to work both collaboratively and independently, exploring and examining the intersection of capitalism, consumerism and culture.

You may focus on any creative sector, product, or area, i.e., fashion, perfume, cars, yacht, sportswear, technology, hotels, coffee, chocolate, champagne etc that you can critically analyse and bring debate around one of these four key themes:  Luxury Narratives Sustainable Narratives Representing Diverse Narratives Global Narratives At all times, you are encouraged to think critically, researching aspects (sometimes controversial, and provocative) of consumerism from European \/ Global North\/South social contexts, examining a variety of different ideals and philosophies as you approach theory and interpretation from, but not limited to:  Taste and consumption. Impact of mass culture. Gender, identity. Ethnicity, heritage. Class, socioeconomics. Climate \u2013 sustainability, and regeneration and more.  In small groups you will devise a speculative elevator pitch where you have a short amount of time to convince a magazine editor to publish your findings in their upcoming publication. You will then develop your findings and research further into an individual critical essay.  Overall, this unit will bridge your professional practice and industry awareness. It will broaden your knowledge and research skillset for professional working-life after graduation, and as you eventually head out to your creative industries. You will research and consider climate, racial and \/ or social purpose principles to connect your ideas and research.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<section id=\"journalism\" class=\"acf-block bg-white\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 col-md-4\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"block-academics-courses__title\">Journalism<\/h2>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-12 col-md-8 col-xl-7 offset-xl-1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion\" data-limit=\"3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"block-accordion__button\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPrint and Online Journalism\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t(2 credits)\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item-content DOM-slider-hidden\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-accordion__item-content-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size block-academics-courses__meta-item\">Course Code: Elective Course Unit 1<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size block-academics-courses__meta-item\">Instruction Language: English<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"has-body-2-font-size\">In this Print and Online Journalism course, you will be introduced to the basic skills and techniques of written journalism, focusing on the conventions of news writing and the creation of concise features.

From the rebellious histories of music and poetry to the new possibilities of advanced creative technologies and design justice methodologies.  The unit will cover a wide range of activist movements including racial justice, queer liberation, workers\u2019 rights, climate action, indigenous land back efforts and multi-species struggles. You will be encouraged to make connections between these as well as bring in causes you are passionate about to class.  We will survey different worlds of activism each week, moving between the macro movements of populations and the micro acts of prefigurative politics. Each session will focus on a specific theme such as work, home or future, and look at how the theme in question relates to issues of social justice. Each session will also be accompanied by a variety of \u2018artivist\u2019 case studies. The sessions will involve a mix of mini lectures, group discussions and hands-on tasks.  The unit will also include field trips to a radical organising hub in East London, an urban hacking headquarters and extracurricular opportunities to connect with local artists and activists. Collectively, we will develop a practice of critically analysing and creatively embodying protest in all its forms.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section id=\"credit-transcripts\" class=\"acf-block block-content-section block-content-section--reduced-spacing content-wrapper bg-white\">\t\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-academic-credit-amp-transcripts\">Academic Credit &amp; Transcripts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"page-block-5\" class=\"block-buttons justify-content-center\">\n\t\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aifsabroad.com\/policies\/\" class=\"c-btn c-btn-tertiary\" target=\"_self\" title=\"View All Policies\" aria-label=\"Button View All Policies\"><span>View All Policies<\/span><\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<section id=\"page-block-12\" class=\"acf-block block-cards bg-white\">\t<div class=\"container block-cards__card-grid\" style=\"--cardsPerRow: 3\">\n\t\t\n\n\t<div class=\"block-card\">\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t<div class=\"block-card__content\">\n\t\t\t\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-credit-transfer\">Credit Transfer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As a part of the AIFS Abroad application for semester programs, you will complete a Course Approval Form, which will be signed off by your study abroad office staff and\/or faculty at your university.<br><br>For J Term\/Summer programs, no such approval form is needed; however, students are still responsible for ensuring credit can be brought back from their overseas program.<br>In any case, we recommend getting additional courses approved in case you need to change courses while abroad.<br><br>Overseas universities do not use the credit system employed by American institutions.
