Project Objectives
The aim of this project is to develop and implement a training program for next generation creators and producers who will be capable of leading Japan’s media arts and content industry and thriving internationally. Specifically, the “Media Produce Major” (tentative) will be established in the Graduate School of Media Art while developing an undergraduate-level curricula for cultivation of creator talents. Such activities will re-define the significance of media arts education and later be widely presented to the society.
Project Approach
The School aspires to develop an education model which will allow students to learn how creators and producers work together to create and distribute creative works. Through cooperation from domestic/foreign experts and collaboration with the industry, program courses which will help students acquire knowledge and skills necessary for overseas distribution (such as translation, localization, international advertising, and market strategy) will be incorporated into the curricula. Furthermore, Takarazuka University will develop a sustainable talent development framework which leverages creativity as a social resource for all generations by connecting with primary and secondary education through support for inquiry-based learning programs.
