In this module, students will critically analysing “true crime” over the ages and across the world, with the aim of finally “pitching” their own true crime documentary or podcast. Students will be asked to reflect critically on how media represents ‘crime” historically and today, in the context of criminological theory, critical media studies and ethical issues. Students will also be trained in digital historical research skills to identify and research a case-study, that they will then turn into a ‘pitch’ for a true crime narrative of their own creation.
