The study of AAMCCS provides a unique opportunity for students to delve deeper into the world of media and entertainment in a dynamic and engaging way. I was intrigued by how each part of this programme helped develop students’ creativity and critical thinking skills, which are highly valued in the tertiary education system. Through AAMCCS, students could gain the skills that they need to succeed in the media and entertainment industries. I am now all and all ready to proceed to my next stage.

AAMCCS的課程讓我透過分析不同社會現象和各種文本,從而深入了解各種文化的概念。感恩在這裏遇到良師,他們樂於解答課堂上的疑問,又樂於跟學生分享個人經驗,使我更了解自己的能力和確立未來方向。我記得《新不了情》裏面秦沛對劉青雲說:「我頂多埋怨自己運氣不好,從來沒有懷疑過自己的才華,記住你千萬不可以懷疑你自己。」行到水窮處,坐看雲起時,只要堅守自己的初衷,總有一天得雲開見月明。

AAMCCS is less about memorising formulas and more about creating and applying ideas to real-life scenarios. Those cultural and media theories are staggeringly eye-opening and have altered how I should identify myself and others in society. The courses granted me a good grasp of media production, from media writing and photography to video making, allowing me to attempt everything and reassuring my interests in this field. I met passionate schoolmates and experienced lecturers who academically and emotionally assisted me on this journey.

This programme had indeed inspired me to explore different cultural aspects such as film, creative industries, advertising, and local and daily life's culture. I get to know the knowledge about how media affect and profit in divergent creative groups, along with the function and history of those cultural categories. It lets me know culture is colossal, which brings many consequences to humans and like writing a perfect music score to assemble people.

I have explored areas in media, communication and culture in AAMCCS. During the two years of study, I have gained confidence and satisfactory results to continue my journey. I enjoyed doing the creative tasks because there are fewer boundaries and more interesting. Some concepts are closely related to our everyday life, and I have learned to observe and discover new ways of seeing our life. On the other hand, the teacher-student relationship in AAMCCS is close. Lecturers always give us enough support and suggestions. I am glad that I have met kind and nice lecturers who are always patient when I have concerns and worries.

There are only three crucial elements to my academic success: be self-disciplined, be curious about the courses, and be ambitious to the goals. Since tertiary education emphasizes self-learning, self-discipline has become the key for me to acquire satisfactory academic results. Sometimes, I was exhausted and lost in the sea of knowledge. Only by always bearing in mind the goal of returning to the university can I position myself and swim towards it.

中學時我只看見一條路︰考好DSE上大學,受傳統和狹窄的思想所影響,很少看見自己。AAMCCS令我明白,遇到個人、社會等問題時,要懂得退一步觀察,擺脫固有觀念,冷靜地分析並解決問題。HKU SPACE CC內有不少良師助我提升能力,現在我成為大學生,並不是為了走完那條路,而是為了進一步提升能力,成為一個我渴望成為的自己。感謝HKU SPACE CC成為我人生旅途的

During the 2 years in the AAMCCS programme, I have met countless creative and unconventional people, including students, tutors and lecturers. They have inspired and reignited my passion for learning about everyday culture, from examining its dominant ideologies to discussing the common usage of memes or emojis.

Academically, this programme allowed me to gain professional knowledge in appreciating creative works done by different kinds of people.

After the torturing battle of DSE, it is easy for we students to feel lost in the sea of opportunities and career paths. HKU SPACE and AAMCCS have introduced me to the fascinating world of cultural studies with introductory courses. It also sparked my interest in this field of study which really gave me a clear goal. With that, I was able to shake off my sense of disorientation in exchange for a clear, dedicated mind to pursue my dream.
