Program Overview

Program Description:

Aims of the course We aim to give graduates from visual arts degrees (or those with equivalent professional experience) the opportunity to develop and expand their own practice through the making of short films. This predominately practice-based course encourages you to locate your work within the growing range of documentary, dramatic and experimental filmmaking and to extend the emerging visual grammars of those genres. Ultimately we offer you an opportunity to develop your skills through practice and intellectual enquiry whilst being attuned to potential audiences, markets and employers. You are expected to crew on each other's productions and to work effectively as part of a team, drawing on your peers' expertise and experience. The course also provides a thorough understanding of the principles and day-to-day practice of freelance and independent production, as well as grounding in business skills, commercial awareness and entrepreneurship. Students on the MA in Audio Visual Production (AVP) and the MA Digital Moving Image (DMI) courses are encouraged to have a creative and supportive working relationship with each other. This synergy is reflected in the sharing of three modules across both courses. The MA AVP and DMI courses are located in two adjacent dedicated studios equipped with high definition editing and animation workstations.
