What will I study?

This practical course focuses on developing your communication, pre-production, production and post-production skills that are required for working in the film and television industry. Each year, you will be given the opportunity to explore two practical productions: editing skills & a short narrative production (year 1) and a music video and documentary (year 2). Alongside this you will develop knowledge and understanding of pre-production techniques, communication skills and research techniques. You will work in production crews to set internal assignment briefs and develop a production from its initial treatment and pitch to its final individual export.
