2023 Media Units 3 & 4 Declaration Form

Equipment Requirements

It is your responsibility as a VSV (Virtual School Victoria) VCE Media student enrolled in Units 3 & 4 Media to ensure that you are able to use media equipment that you are comfortable with and that you can verify that you have an understanding of how to use the equipment. The equipment relates to the media form that you choose to do for your SAT. For example, if you were producing a moving image sequence, you may use equipment that could include hardware such as a camera/video camera, and software to produce your final product, such as Final Cut Pro. Currently you can choose from the following:

a moving image sequence
a still image photographic presentation
a print production
an audio production
