Hybrid Practices in Moving Image Design

Abstract

This conclusion brings together the central argument that in moving image design digital technology can enable and facilitate greater expression of heritage practices in a hybrid form. The importance of the political and economic forces that shape media and education are highlighted. Moving image offers stimulating opportunities for screen-based digital skills, 3D modelling and drawing to develop together, allowing contemporary modes of creation to be taught in a structured programme in an arts context. The argument is made that it is the role of artists and designers to continually rethink our relationship with technology, rather than regarding technology as a means to an end.
