Course programme

MA in Film and Television Production

Mode:
full-time

This programme is the first of its kind at a British University, and has a tradition of excellence covering over 30 years.

The Department of Drama has an international reputation in this field and enjoys close support from leading industry professionals. Productions from the programme are routinely broadcast and exhibited internationally.

Practical work is group-based and consists of fiction and documentary production. While each student concentrates on certain roles during the dissertation production period, the programme is essentially generalist.

Programme Structure

Compulsory Units
These cover aesthetic forms and conventions, production practices, and critical and conceptual issues.

Optional Units
These cover a range of craft and critical areas and are taught by active practitioners from within the Department and the media industries.

Dissertation
The dissertation has a large practical component, but you are also required to submit individual critical work at a suitably advanced level, including an analysis as part of the dissertation.

Compulsory and Optional Units
These units cover core skills in:

  • Writing
  • Directing
  • Producing
  • Cinematography
  • Editing
  • Sound
  • Production Design
  • New Media
  • Processes in the conceptualisation and development of production
  • Critical and practical engagement with screen culture
  • Techniques of screen-based communication

The first semester develops necessary enabling skills and understanding for progression to the developmental work of the second semester, which in turn leads to the dissertation.
