Film Making MA: Course features

What this course offers you

The Film Making MA trains you in professional film production skills using digital and analogue equipment. You also spend 25% of your time studying theories of contemporary cinema.
Your Final Film Project gives you the chance to illustrate your technical competence in:

This provides a good starting point for employment or becoming an independent film maker in command of your own material.
The course is run jointly between the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences and the Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture. This means that you benefit from the expertise of two departments.
Many members of staff are research active, which keeps your learning cutting-edge (read more in the Research section).

We offer a part-time study option to help you fit your MA around other commitments.
