Michael Danks
Digital Television Management and Production MSc
Course graduate Michael Danks previously had 26 years experience in television post-production. He is now a producer on a BBC pilot – the interactive storytelling exhibition project – a new way of engaging the public with BBC programmes within a museum context.
It was a brilliant course. It enabled me to understand the technology and also gave me the confidence to talk to technical people and business analysts in their own language. I can now hold my own in any conversation. I also gained project management skills which have been very important. The course gave me an understanding of the constraints which has been really vital and is uncommon for university courses. Brighton kept it real but also allowed us to think creatively. Everything on the course has been applicable in my current job. I’ve created a full prototype for the exhibition project which is unusual and has been incredibly useful.
