SCREEN BASE CAMP DATESDelivered from December 2nd until December 20th in 2013 as a three-week intensive block, the camp covers eight units from a total of thirteen required for the complete Certificate IV in Screen and Media qualification.

Week 1 includes planning your short film andworkshops with industry professionals who will conduct training in script writing and how to get the best out of a camera.

This week is conducted at ELTHAM College.

INTRODUCTIONIn 2013 Screen Base Camp will be held on the Surf Coast near Lorne. Certificate IV in Screen and Media is a nationally recognised competency based qualification. The Screen course is delivered in two parts, Part 1 (Screen Base Camp) and Part 2 (Screen Extension). Students enrolled in Base Camp receive a Statement of Attainment for the units completed and also receive a 10% block credit towards their ATAR score.

VCE VET UNITS & ATAREnrolment in part 1 and 2 can occur in any order. Doing both courses can enable students to receive two 10% block credits towards their ATAR and the full Certificate IV in Screen and Media qualification. Block credits are only eligible where there is no subject duplication; this occurs in some VET subjects not VCE Media. If you are unsure about this speak to LifeWorks.
