Program Overview

A major in cinema arts provides experience in all areas of film production, from scriptwriting to production to post-production. You'll graduate with a strong portfolio ready to pursue careers in film, video, screenwriting and more.

Why choose cinema arts at CMU?

Gain an understanding of all aspects of film in Michigan's only BFA program in cinema arts.

  • Shape rough ideas into well-crafted scripts.
  • Learn about the various design and aesthetic principles of film.
  • Craft your own film production with access to high-quality film equipment and software.

You can learn from award-winning experienced faculty who have had their films exhibited at high profile festivals. You’ll graduate with critical hands-on experience and a solid digital portfolio.

You'll take courses on scriptwriting, audio/video production, film critique and analysis and more alongside peers just as passionate as you are about watching and making high quality films. You'll then apply what you learn in the classroom to the production of your very own film project from start to finish. Students' films have been exhibited at the Central Michigan International Film Festival.

Beyond the classroom, you’ll have access to internship opportunities with broadcast and television studios, film and media companies, digital web agencies and more. You can also join CMU's Animation Club, Film Society and Moore Hall Television, an organization for passionate cinephiles committed to promoting diversity and educational and cultural awareness through film.
