Course Overview

Our focus is on the cultural, aesthetic and economic importance of film, past, present and future. You’ll acquire extensive filmic knowledge and learn to analyse film in all its forms and cultural diversity. Throughout the course, you'll produce a distinctive portfolio of critical and practical work with the help of expert tutors and industry professionals. What's more, as a student in the heart of our film-making capital, you’ll benefit from our exclusive partnership with the British Film Institute as well as having some amazing opportunities to get involved with the full array of media industries on our doorstep.

Throughout the course, you’ll study film texts, film histories, and national cinemas from a variety of perspectives to gain a deep understanding of the subject. You’ll explore world cinema history, the British film industry, and the future of film in a globalised world of digital media. We’ll help you to use that knowledge and training to make fiction and documentary films that break new ground, and you’ll also learn how to present and communicate your ideas in an engaging and dynamic way by delivering great presentations and compiling film production dossiers to industry standards. In your second year, you'll have the chance to further develop your practical skills by either writing short screenplays or entering a work experience opportunity in the cultural industries.

Employability

Studying film in London puts you at the center of the filmmaking business. You’ll be prepared for work in the film, media and cultural industries in roles such as film curation, TV production, journalism, PR, publishing or adverting. A Film Studies degree, like other humanities qualifications, also opens doors to a wide range of non-media-specific professions including teaching, management, marketing, and the voluntary and local government sectors.

When you finish this course you’ll have a range of practical skills with which to shape your future, including screenwriting, pitching ideas and building a creative video portfolio.

Although the course does not provide you with professional film or media production training, it will give you the intellectual and practical skills and abilities that are premium requisites in the media and creative industries – and our graduates have gone on to work for the BBC, ITV, and Universal (Europe).
