Course summary

This Creative Skillset accredited programme accelerates individual practices within an inspirational and supportive industry-standard environment. With an emphasis on the development of independent audio-visual projects, you will be encouraged to push and challenge your emerging practice as you refine your technical and conceptual skills. One of the most valuable aspects of MA Film is being part of a community of practitioners and researchers with diverse specialisms. Depending on your specialism you may engage with a range of audio-visual methods including: animation (including 2D digital, CGI and stop motion); film and moving image production; motion graphics; scripting and narrative; pre-production and post-production skills and techniques; and sound design. Taught components will enhance your knowledge and understanding of both moving image and sound and you will be encouraged to explore wider historical and cultural contexts for your work. You will be expected to demonstrate breadth, depth and originality in your experimentation with concepts, issues and materials relating to moving image and/or sound design. Through intensive study and comprehensive technical workshops you will refine the practical and conceptual skills necessary to create original and innovative work, to a high professional standard.
