Studio descriptions for semester 2, 2024

We are pleased to announce the Media 2 and Media 4 studios for semester 2, 2024. Please read the following information completely and carefully, including the Studio Descriptions booklet, BEFORE preferencing studios in myTimetable.

  1. Studio descriptions are provided in this STUDIO-DESCRIPTIONS-BOOKLET-S2-2024_v3. Please read each description carefully
  2. Studios allocations are sorted by a preferencing system run through myTimetable, where the preferencing period opens at 10am Tuesday 11 June and closes 5pm Sunday 23 June 2024. During this period we advise you to nominate (at least) your top three preferences, but encourage you to nominate further preferences. Remember that preferencing does not operate on a first in first served basis and preferencing is not “selecting” – there is no guarantee that you will be given your top preference.
  3. Studio times are listed below and in myTimetable. Check the studio times against your other classes and commitments, where you need to be able to attend both pracs every week – do NOT preference a studio you cannot attend
  4. Other timetabling information can be found here
  5. If there are any studio-specific issues, please use this form and we will get back to you within 48 hours.

To assist you with your preferences and scheduling, please see below for studio class times.

Flex Semester Media Studios 2023

Please read this entire post from start until end including all linked content.

WHAT ARE FLEX STUDIOS?

Flex Studios are Media Studios that run in November/December, in an intensive, 6-week mode. This year, Flex Studios will run from Monday 23 October to Friday 1 December, with final assessments due by Friday 8 December.

SHOULD I ENROL IN FLEX?

Check with your academic advisor.

HOW DO I CHOOSE A STUDIO?

Please note this is a different process to allocating studios in the past, so read carefully!

  1. There are 4 x studios on offer for the flex semester, where you only allocate one
  2. Please read the descriptions in the Media Studios description book and times for each studio carefully below to decide on which studio you’re a) most interested in and b) can attend consistently for the 6-weeks
  3. Timetable allocation opens for studios this Thursday October 12 at 9am via myTimetable on a first-come-first-served basis, so please have a backup in case your chosen studio is completely allocated. Remember all of the studios are fantastic!
