BA (Hons) Film Studies and Music Production

Keele's combined honours course in Film Studies and Music Production is an exciting programme that allows you to develop key skills in filmmaking, screenwriting and producing sound. You will examine the cultural contexts for which sound is produced and develop a portfolio of skills that will help you to achieve your career ambitions in the creative industries, such as TV, radio, film and games.

Film is a powerful art form that incorporates the study of technology, culture, and aesthetics. At Keele you will delve deep into the theoretical analysis of film from both historical and contemporary perspectives. You will identify key debates in contemporary screen media, and analyse a broad range of film and television texts from the widest cultural contexts. Looking both at 'classic' Hollywood film and newer forms of global film and television, you will consider the characteristics that distinguish these different types of production. You will also have the chance to make further connections to film through the study of other media forms, such as photography and literature.
