The UC of Sonoplasty introduces students to the context and the sound aspects in the scope of audiovisual communication aiming at the development of technical and aesthetic competences and, above all, of sound culture. This UC intends that the students contact with the sound through a theoretical and practical organization, critical analysis of contents in order to develop their personal static and communication skills and interconnection of phases and elements inherent to the production of audio visual artifacts in the form of short films, installations and small sound applications.

Assessment
Assessment
As aulas têm carácter teórico-prático, sendo a exposição dos conteúdos programáticos feita oralmente pelo docente com recurso ocasional à projeção de elementos audiovisuais complementares e debate com os estudantes. São realizados diversos exercícios práticos para consolidação dos conhecimentos.
A avaliação é contínua e consiste na resolução de exercícios propostos ao longo do semestre resultando numa avaliação de média final ponderada com um peso total de 18 Valores. Os restantes 2 valores destinam-se à avaliação da participação e trabalho em aula por parte dos estudantes. Os estudantes deverão frequentar obrigatoriamente a pelo menos 70% das aulas.
O Exame de Recurso, com uma duração de 2h e destinado aos estudantes com nota negativa (inferior a 10 valores) ou para estudantes que pretendam fazer melhoria de nota, consiste na realização de uma proposta de trabalho prática de complexidade semelhante ao trabalho desenvolvido durante a avaliação contínua, sendo obrigatória a posterior submissão de relatório e apresentação da mesma com um peso total de 20 valores."
