WHY YOU SHOULD CONSIDER A DIGITAL MEDIA CAREER

Digital media is all around us. It’s in the films you stream online, it’s on the blog site you read, it’s on your phone, and is very much a part of everyday life.

Digital media is all about bringing ideas and art to life. Whether that be through animation, video or marketing, digital media is all about storytelling and creativity, integrated with technology.

But digital media is not only the things you can see: pictures, videos and articles; there are all sorts of behind the scenes careers as well.

There are many different careers available in digital media

Working in digital media does not just mean becoming an animator or visual effects artist. There are more career paths than you imagine. You could put your skills to work as a video editor or social media manager… you could specialise in software and app development, or perhaps digital content production. You could even be the project manager who makes everything come together.

By studying Flinders Bachelor of Creative Industries (Digital Media), you’ll learn how to develop projects from the ground up. How to lead, pitch, market and manage. How to work independently and how to collaborate to take a digital media project from idea to execution to successful launch.

You won’t just graduate with technical skills; the Bachelor of Creative Industries (Digital Media) will teach you the ins and out of the industry and offer you practical, career-ready training that will see you graduate ready to take on the world.

Creative industries are thriving

Digital media is constantly changing. It may be a cliché, but it’s true – the job you’ll be working in five years from now may not even exist yet. So, make sure you graduate future-ready. Australia’s creative industries were valued at $111 billion in 2016-2017, and digital media will play a big part in any future growth.

You don’t need to decide the exact direction your career will take. Now is the time to follow your passion, and set yourself up for future success. The Bachelor of Creative Industries (Digital Media) will prepare you to take advantage of the changes that are coming, and prepare you to thrive in a challenging, exciting and fast-moving field.
