Course description
In this programme, we encourage you to find individual approaches through work in:
* documentary
* drama
* experimental film
* hybrid film
Through exercises and short films, we also nurture work that challenges the norms and boundaries of filmmaking.
These experiences will help you:
* find your own creative identities
* develop skills that will help you find work in the industry
By the time you graduate you will have worked on several films in different roles.
**Practical skills**
You will gain practical experience in:
* approaches to directing and writing
* creative producing
* camerawork
* sound recording and design
* editing, colour and grading
This helps you explore how every aspect of film and every role within a crew is a means of creative expression.
We work as a film community supporting collaboration across the year groups. You will learn the teamwork and communication skills necessary to enter the film and television industries.
**Masterclasses**
You will benefit from workshops and masterclasses from internal and visiting staff, who all work and exhibit internationally in film and television.
**Design and Screen Cultures**
You will study Design and Screen Cultures courses alongside your practical studio work.
These courses give you a contextual and theoretical understanding of contemporary screen studies.
