Have you ever watched a movie with breathtaking landscapes, gorgeous castles or giant buildings in the middle of nowhere that makes you ask yourself “How did they do that?” .

At the heart of a table tennis player & coach
They are hand picked, highly trained and on many occasions multi talented; and when they graduate we are sorry to see them go. On the other hand we couldn’t be prouder!
Take Constantinos Christoudias for instance. He has been with us for just over 2 years. He was an exceptional assistant and an exceptional student.

Mediazone Student website statistics for the Spring semester – Making its way around the world!
Spring Semester Stats – Fresh from Google!
It is hard to believe that next month our student website will be 2 years old. In that time it has grown from being a basic information site to an incredible tool for all students taking practical courses in the Department of Communications. Not only have we improved, tweaked and tinkered under the hood, but we have added “can’t live without” tools such as all of our operation manuals in pdf – including the hard to find ones. Students are using our handbooks, useful links, booking their cameras and facilities, all from the comfort of their own homes. It truly is a “one stop shopping site”, a “megamart” of sorts. Or maybe a really cool “Swiss army tool-kit”, where you can quickly find the right tool, & pretty well everything you need to survive throughout the semester. Continue reading

Class Project
On this clip students from Radio production COMM 216 interview Dub Caravan about his music, influences and future plans.
Felix Russ Abu aka Dub Caravan is an artist, multi-instrumentalist, producer and composer who creates a multi-dimensional musical landscape for listeners craving something fresh, original and out-of-this-world… He is a multi-instrumentalist music producer who has worked with a variety of people over the last five years, including Nambo Robinson, Haji Mike, Shaky Norman and Hornsman Coyote. In theory, the music of Dub Caravan is not associated with any particular style but it is heavily influenced by the dub and reggae music of the 70’s, world Beat, ambient, chill out, jazz, punk rock and ethnic music particularly from the Mediterranean, Middle East and Far East.
