Leading to: Film Studies and English Literature BA (Hons)

Understanding the interplay between the written word and the moving image is key to our world. Combining the study of Film and English will allow you to explore texts you love, as you learn how to analyse and tell stories in written and visual form. You'll be taught and supported by enthusiastic, internationally renowned professors, researchers and media practitioners. Plus, you'll be working in industry-standard production facilities, as part of the Yorkshire Film and Television School.

The course will develop your abilities to analyse, research and write persuasively about a rich variety of films, shows and filmmakers, from Hollywood classics to the latest superhero blockbusters through to indie movies and YouTube releases. As part of the wide mix of skills you'll learn, you'll also get the chance to improve your writing, plus develop abilities in video and audio production.

With English Literature, we'll encourage you to develop a broad knowledge of writing, from today's science fiction or contemporary poetry to Victorian novels or Elizabethan plays. You'll gain insights into all the major literary genres and a range of periods from literary history. You'll have the option to try out screenwriting, or to put your skills to work in real-world projects.
