Course summary

The innovators of the 21st century will bring together arts, science, engineering, humanities and enterprise to deliver innovative products, services and ways of living. They will be team players with a breadth of skills and qualities that enable them to work across specialisms and cultures. This course combines in-depth subject specialism in film and television with interdisciplinary breadth, creative teamwork and entrepreneurial skills. In conjunction with your study and practice of film and television, you will apply your subject knowledge by translating ideas into innovative solutions, which may include plans for digital and creative enterprises, both social and commercial. The course will equip you to use the critical, theoretical and practical skills that are central to film and television. Through historical and conceptual study, you will be able to analyse, research, interpret and understand film and television from a critically and contextually informed perspective. You will learn to explore practical and creative approaches by acquiring and applying filmmaking skills. You will come together with students from other innovation disciplines, such as economics and computer science, each contributing a unique perspective on a challenge as you identify needs and develop ideas. Ultimately, you'll create innovative solutions together. By the time you graduate, you will have a portfolio of work ranging from live client projects to planning your own entrepreneurial venture. You will have learned how to evaluate the potential of your product or service and how to finance it, and you will have a network of peers and advisers who have worked with you along the way.
