Course summary

Overview

Our filmmaking course embraces all areas of film - from documentary and fiction, to artist's film production and critical writing. We believe in learning through doing - so from the very beginning, you'll become part of a close-knit creative team, making films exactly as you would in the industry.

Digital technology has changed the way that film is conceived and produced. You'll explore different techniques and establish yourself in a key specialist role, such as production design, visual effects, animation, directing, cinematography, editing or sound.

The experience of studying film with like-minded people in an arts environment will help to fuel your creativity and give you a wide network of invaluable contacts for your future career.

Key features

  • Build a strong portfolio of work that demonstrates the specialist skills and practical film making experience which employers really value

  • Study in our purpose-built Digital Arts Centre, which includes a video studio, sound studio, individual edit suites and high-spec computer labs with the latest image manipulation, editing and sound post-production software

  • Benefit from regular visits, guest lectures and feedback from top industry experts

  • Tailor your learning to your interests by studying your degree in combination with a second subject, such as Film Studies, Screenwriting or Creative Writing
