Course summary

Why study this course?

This is a practice-based course which allows for both intensive training in and study of Film and Television. Students often graduate having produced high-level audio-visual work and expert critical analyses of film and television that allow them to go on to work in specialist or broad-based media jobs.

The course shares a common first year with Film and Television Studies BA that covers both basic audio-visual skills and essential academic knowledge of the film and television field. Subsequently, students specialise in practice-based audio-visual production whilst continuing with academic analysis of film and TV.
