The World of Television is a course for 4EU + students as a cross-sectional view of the still dominant medium, which in recent years has absorbed the principles of cinema. It will focus on three levels: a) the medium as an institution (production organization, economic aspects, what is the television market, how rights, tv formats and so-called packages are traded) b) the medium as a creative space for creating media content (including genres, their changes in relation to current trends), c) the world that television mediates (to what extent it can compete with other types of communication, especially social networks).

The aim of the course is to perceive television as a strong medium that retains a significant role in today's fragmented digital world, which it had to adapt to. The purpose is to show the various aspects of the world of television and the world that television depicts, and to take a step towards committing this medium. Lecturer is therotician and practician of television, he worked for TV as a slot editor and editor of documentary films, seires and programmes, and as a external director of documentary films.
