The Richmond Associate Degree in Film Studies programme offers a unique transnational, cross-disciplinary and affordable opportunity for its graduates to move on from London to Los Angeles to pursue a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Film and Media.

It is designed for those who have a passion for film, television, and the moving image, and for those who are seeking to develop a broad base of knowledge of film and practical film making skills.
