Course summary
On our International Film Production MA/PG Dip/PG Cert, you will enhance your filmmaking skills, such as storytelling, lighting, production design and directing, while developing a range of core skills and expertise in business and production management, such as post-production, pitching, budgeting and management.
Your skills and knowledge will be completed with industry-led insight and expertise, which is embedded throughout the courses. Students on the course will examine and analyse global cinema movements, whether via territory or style, to gain a broader understanding of the industry and further your knowledge of existing directors and global cinema movements. This includes dedicated taught sessions on international (non-western) film movements. You will also be encouraged to draw upon your own interests and experience of your home countries’ cinema to inspire your filmmaking practice.
When you graduate, you will have mastered the skills required to enter a career in film, TV or media. Previous graduates have gone on to obtain roles such as Art Director, Camera Operator, Editorial and Clearance Co-ordinator, Director and Producer on short and feature films, for Sky, BBC, Channel 4 and Channel 5. With the courses’ focus on individual research, you will also be well-prepared for progression to a PhD.
