BAFLM3002 Australian Screen Texts and Industries
This advanced-level course provides an overview of Australian screen media, including film and television. An introduction to the organisation and development of Australian screen industries is provided. Screen productions, including films and television programs, are studied both as texts and in relation to their contexts. The unit explores contemporary examples and other significant developments in Australian screen media by analysing screen works in relation to cultural debates and key themes. Course content encompasses fiction and non-fiction, and diversity in terms of gender, class and ethnicity, including Indigenous screen production. The unit fosters understanding of Australia¿s relationship to the international screen industry by introducing students to cultural, social and economic contexts in which Australian industries operate.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $2,124
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $997
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
