Module Content

In the third core course – which will run during the third term- students will independently make a short documentary film of duration ‘4-‘7 (extendable, in exceptional circumstances to 10’ maximum with permission of your tutors) on a subject they have developed with a a collaborator who acts like a commissioner. The collaborator can be an academic, a research team, an artist or other creative practitioner who is willing to engage with you to shape your work ‘on commission’. This project will provide you with the chance to work collaboratively and working on turning research into film. Students will also produce a critical review reflecting on the work process.

Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion of this course students will be able to:


	identify and deal with complex problems in collaborative production workflows and identify possibilities for creatively turning research into film
	

	take full responsibility for initiating, identifying, amending and achieving aims and desired outcomes in a collaborative project
	
Delivery Method

This is a self-starting research-based course which you will complete under the supervision of a course leader. Workshops, crit sessions and one on one tutorials will support your practice.

Clinical Aspects of Musculoskeletal Medicine and Surgery (Part I) (SURG0007)

‘Clinical aspects of musculoskeletal medicine’ will introduce you to the medical speciality of ‘Orthopaedics’ and provide you with an insight into the clinical management of musculoskeletal disease including diagnosis, examination, surgical intervention, and perioperative care. You will be taught by Specialist Consultants at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital (RNOH) on this module. The scale of the problem of musculoskeletal disease to society will be discussed and illustrated with the latest epidemiological data. You will learn about the range of imaging modalities used to assess the musculoskeletal system, including X-ray, DXA, CT, MRI, bone scintigraphy and ultrasound. Common musculoskeletal problems such as osteoarthritis of the hip and knee will be covered in detail including predisposing factors, symptoms, surgical interventions and physiotherapy. More complex cases of joint replacement, as seen at the RNOH will be discussed. Spinal deformity and spinal surgery, a speciality at the RNOH, will be covered. You will learn about the design and success or failure of implants for joint replacement and spinal surgery. The classroom teaching on this module will be bought to life with visits to the operating theatre to observe orthopaedic surgery and to clinics to observe pre-surgery and post-operative care at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital.
