Work with students across a range of disciplines including collaborating computer-generated material through BU's National Centre for Computer Animation or via other creative ventures.
Use specialist facilities, including post-production sound suites, track-lay and stereo mixing, a Foley/ADR studio, an AVID S6 equipped 7.1 dubbing theatre and Dolby ATMOS mixing theatre. This course has greater relevance and credibility in industry as part of the AVID Learning Partnership. Bournemouth offers the chance to take the Pro Tools 101 exam as part of the programme.
