The MA Film and Television Production degree’s mission is to provide an environment for students to develop their vision and use their voice as a filmmaker.
Through a culture of filmmaking practice, students will regularly undertake shoots in which they explore multiple styles of cinema and television drama and documentary. With a strong focus on feature film, high-end drama and feature documentary, students are challenged to produce creative ideas, scripts and shorts across each week. The course ensures students build their own filmmaker’s sketchbook of genres, skills, narratives and vision.
In the final semester, students produce their own major film or TV production, or write a substantial screenplay (such as a feature length film script or a pilot episode and series outline for TV drama).
Why choose this course?
Across the course, students will gain and build on knowledge of production and post-production practice, and essential industry practices including finance, marketing and distribution.
Our regular hosted sessions with industry professionals ensure students learn current industry practice and trends from the very best. We also work closely with key industry partners to enable students to connect directly with their future employers and mentors.
Students undertake a programme of screenings, masterclasses and seminars, to extend their knowledge of film and television histories, genres, aesthetics and narrative processes and to develop a range of research and communication skills. Students are encouraged to develop the aesthetic and conceptual awareness required to analyse and critically situate their work within current theoretical, cultural and commercial contexts, whether as a director, producer or scriptwriter.
The modules focus on script development, camerawork, lighting, sound recording, post production techniques, producership, funding, distribution and other relevant areas. You will benefit from the expertise and creative ideas of students working in specialised areas elsewhere in the School (e.g. Visual Effects, Special Effects, Animation or Music) whose input can enhance the professionalism of your major projects.

Careers
When you successfully complete your MA, you will have made a very substantial addition to your CV and have a clear understanding of the next steps in the development of your career.
What job can I get?
No film school can catapult a graduate directly into producing or directing their own feature film. However, our course supports students in becoming creatively entrepreneurial with the ability to initiate, develop and deliver film and television projects both as independent producers, writers and directors or in the context of existing production companies. The goal is to enhance students’ ability to progress creative projects and advance within the industry. Career objectives include fast track progression in producership, directing and writing: a high proportion of graduates set up their own production companies.
