Course programme

This qualification helps you to progress onto

• Level 3 UAL Creative Media Production & Technology Study Programme which specialises in Media Film and Television Production, Radio, Multimedia Journalism, Games Development, Performing Arts, Music Production and performance,

• Traineeships, apprenticeships within the wider commercial/creative based industries and supported through Cambridge Regional College.

Please note, in order to progress to the Level 3 UAL Diploma in Creative Media Production you are currently required to successfully complete Level 2 UAL Creative Media Production & Technology with a Pass or above.

As of September 2017 the entry requirement for Level 2 Creative Media is 2 GCSEs at grade 4-1 or a Level 1 Pass..

This is subject to change and between the academic years 16/17 and 17/18 there was a significant change in the requirements.

Typical Work:

The awarding body, University of Arts London, strongly urges a constant sense of self-guidance and independent work throughout the course. Students will need to generate creative ideas, experiment further with them and ultimately create a portfolio of work demonstrating all the necessary skills. This will include a variety of research and practical skills centred on the industries of Journalism, Film & TV, Games Development and Music Production.

A large part of the qualification is focused on the student being able to communicate their ideas and show self-reflection and evaluation as well as a critical understanding of the practices they are developing. They will write, record and present their ideas to build their confidence and showcase ideas.

The work is submitted to an online blog system, Edublogs, so all students can see one another's work and contribute the greater Media community.

In addition to the entry qualifications listed, the offer of a place on the course is subject to the outcomes of initial assessment, which will be taken at the College as part of the admissions process. Please note that entry criteria may vary quite significantly between courses at the same level. This is to take account of the specific skills needed for success on particular courses, the length of the course and the requirements for progression to the next level. Entry criteria are given as a guide, and the exact requirements in order to obtain a place on a particular course will be confirmed following attendance at a Welcome Event/Interview.

We want you to achieve to the very best of your ability at CRC. To make this happen we offer both learning and personal support by specialist staff tailored to meet your specific needs.
