Multimedia skills are becoming increasingly essential in the context of multi-platform journalistic production. Understanding the narrative and production characteristics of all formats involved is a basic requirement for information professionals. The purpose of the Postgraduate Course is to teach the skills needed for creating information content in various formats. Both the materials and the dynamics of the Postgraduate Course are highly oriented towards the professional world and will bring the student up to date in the fundamental issues affecting multimedia production.

The content follows the same philosophy as the programme. It has been created in such a way that it is easy to read and view, either on the Internet or at home. Everything you need to know can be found quickly and easily in the high-quality package which includes purpose-made audiovisual content, articles and links.

And on the other, a virtual production environment, Catalan News Agency, which will immerse students in the day-to-day running of an agency. Students will be able to view forecasts and commissions, and will participate as producers, creating written and audiovisual materials.

Key features:

• Professional simulation in a real environment
• Multi-format practices: Text, audio, photo and video
• Real and current news material available online from the Catalan News Agency (CAN)
• Audiovisual and text materials in multimedia journalistic format
• The Postgraduate Course will be taught using two platforms:
  • UOC VIRTUAL CLASSROOM
  • CATALAN NEWS AGENCY (ACN) VIRTUAL PRODUCTION

The Postgraduate Course will provide up-to-date practical knowledge about the production of multimedia news content. Students will learn about all the elements involved including organisational, narrative and production aspects and will come face to face with real situations using the platform of the Catalan News Agency, where they will create multimedia articles and work with a content management environment using all formats.
