Master of Fine Arts in Producing

Program Overview

Producing is a craft that brings together the many disparate facets of filmmaking, covering both creative and business-focused skillsets. Simply put, no other position in film or television has more to do with the technical, creative, and financial aspects of making a film or TV show than the producer does, and it is he or she who sees a project from the very beginning to the very end.

Over the course of two semesters, students learn what it means to think and act like a producer. From day one, students are treated as producers and are challenged to develop the creative and technical skills producers must have to successfully navigate the entertainment industry. Through a combination of lectures, seminars, and coursework, students will become familiar with the different roles, tasks, and obstacles that producers encounter and learn how to manage them.

In addition, students are expected to hone their abilities as writers, learning the fundamentals of the craft in order to write their own original feature treatments, and business plans. Students also receive extensive practice in the art of pitching, learning how to best craft a compelling sales pitch for their project. Furthermore, students obtain a working knowledge of finance, marketing, and distribution strategies while analyzing media trends in the industry. Ultimately, students will complete their studies with the creation of their Thesis, which will explore a key element of their feature film treatment.
