This program is a selection of short non-fiction videos by 3rd-year Screen studies students at Monash University. Selected from projects created during 2021 in a course titled ‘Screen Project: From Film theory to Media Production’ these videos respond to existing film cultures to inspire new contemporary video works.  

Shot during the COVID 19 Pandemic this selection includes subjects range from Vegemite Scrolls to Longboard Skateboarding to the experiences of international study during COVID. They engage us with styles that include observational documentary, special-interest journalism, personal essays, and city symphonies. Taken together, they represent an energetic, intellectual and highly affecting window onto a world seen through the eyes of Melbourne’s next-generation of media makers.
