Master of Science in Filmmaking (by research)

Program Overview

Unleash your creativity and innovation within a research context, guided by an expert within the field with the MA Filmmaking (by research).

This degree encompasses all phases of development, preproduction, production and postproduction of a short film or television pilot (20-30 minutes). You will also submit an analytical essay of 3,000-5,000 words to set your creative work within its research context.

The MA Filmmaking (by research) has no taught element. You will work independently with support from your academic supervisor.

This degree is particularly aimed at individuals who wish to develop advanced research skills to enhance their undergraduate degree and/or as a prelude to developing a research-based career. As such, whilst counting as a research degree in its own right, this Masters by research may enable you to transfer to PhD study. This is provided your filmmaking project is of a sufficiently high standard and has the potential to be explored in greater depth.
