Hello!
Welcome to the MediaManiacs website. If you’re reading this, it’s probably because you are currently studying or planning to study Media Studies at KBA. I get a buzz thinking about the fact that you make up the next generation of entrepreneurs and pioneers. You are alive at perhaps the most extraordinary time in history. Young people now have instant access to the world’s most powerful tool: the media. That excites us (and scares us a little) because with great power comes great responsibility; there’s the potential for new technologies to be greatly misused, as well as being used greatly. From Mark Zuckerburg (Facebook) to Jamal Edwards (SBTV) to Poppy Dinsey (wiwt.com), young(ish) people like you are shaping the way we use the media. Our vision is that the skills, abilities and talents that you develop as you study the Media can be used to help you think and act creatively, as well as prepare you for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences you will meet in the future. We would love to hear your thoughts on how Media Studies can continue to inspire you to achieve excellence in your learning.
