Film Practice

BA (Hons) Film Practice has been developed for students with a passion for independent cinema. Working across documentary and fiction, this hands-on, industry-oriented course offers a strong, practical emphasis on digital film production.

This course is taught at London College of Communication, at Elephant and Castle, part of University of the Arts London (UAL).

What can you expect?

• Committed to the art of storytelling, we'll introduce you to professional models of practice in various production disciplines.

• Our emphasis on teamwork rather than an ‘auteur’ model better reflects professional environments where teams collaborate on a shared vision.

• Much of your work will have a practical focus. Along with work placements in Year 2 and a dedicated screenwriting and documentary development unit, you’ll produce a substantial body of film work for your showreel.

• Practical work is complemented by theory, which provides context on the issues that shape the world around us.

• Our graduates have gone on to work for the BBC, Warner Brothers, Netflix, Panavision, and independent production companies across the world. Many have developed freelance careers, while others have progressed to the National Film and Television School.
