Moving Image

The moving image forms a significant and expanding area of contemporary art practice. New technologies have transformed the relationships between traditional film, video and digital formats, offering new opportunities for experimentation.

On this course you will be encouraged to make use of video, 16mm film, installation, digital editing, sound and animation to develop your creative ideas and build a strong conceptual and technical basis for your development as a creative artist.

Course structure

The course is taught through a series of lectures, seminars, visiting artist and guest lecturer talks, group critiques, individual tutorials, technical workshops and a screening programme.

You can choose to take a three-year BA(Hons) degree or a four-year MDes integrated masters-level qualification.

We expect graduates to be able to find employment as filmmakers, artists, and curators as well as in the wider media industries and in education.
