Montage is the first lesson in building a visual literacy and can be approached both as a self-standing activity and the first component of the MIA course.

MIA stands for the Meta-Image App, and this is the thoroughly enhanced version of the App that the Quintin Hogg Trust generously funded while I was leading the Digital and Interactive Storytelling LAB at the University of Westminster in London, UK.

MIA has five modules.  These can be engaged in any order, yet I would advise to follow the order they are presented with: Montage, Composition, Aesthetics, Storyboarding and Story-showing.

MIA has been translating my expertise as a professional photographer and university lecturer into a consequential course to develop foundational competencies in visual literacy, and it continues to evolve to respond to the latest requirements of today's digital cultures.

Welcome to Montage!

MIA is the first comprehensive course that I present on massimedia. 

MIA stands for the Meta-Image App, and it is the result of the research that the Quintin Hogg Trust generously funded while I was establishing the Digital and Interactive Storytelling LAB at the University of Westminster in London, UK.

MIA offered me the opportunity of translating what I had learnt as a professional photographer and university lecturer into a dedicated App for university teaching and, as this version proves, professional training. 

MIA has five modules.  These can be engaged in any order, yet I would advise to follow the order they are presented with: Montage, Composition, Aesthetics, Storyboarding and Story-showing. 

Let's get started!
