MA Film (previously MA Moving Image and Sound) offers an innovative and collaborative exploration of film as a versatile medium for storytelling, artistic expression, and social commentary. Through a blend of theoretical, critical inquiry and hands-on production workshops, you will push the boundaries of film and sound to create impactful and ethically conscious work. You will challenge conventions and experiment through text, image, sound, multimedia, emerging digital technologies, and content structures. The course will support you to develop your unique voice as a filmmaker to create original and innovative work.
The course provides comprehensive training in all aspects of film production, including producing, screenwriting, directing, cinematography, production design, sound design, and editing. Through engaging in professional processes from preproduction to post-production, you will acquire practical and critical skills necessary for creating impactful work. By working within the UK production frameworks, you’ll gain a thorough understanding of legal, moral, and ethical standards, aligning your practice with industry expectations and standards like the BFI Diversity Standards.
Entrants should normally have achieved a BA (Hons) / BSc Degree of 2:1 or above (or its equivalent), in a subject related to your proposed course of study.
Applicants who hold a Degree from another discipline may also be considered for entry, subject to the submission of a satisfactory portfolio of art, design or media-related work in support of their application.
Those with industry experience or relevant skills from non-traditional backgrounds are encouraged to apply, including individuals currently employed. If you’re unsure about your eligibility, please contact us for guidance before applying.
