What is Film Making MA?

Take the opportunity to explore your own voice and vision – creating sophisticated, professionally produced and expertly crafted films. You’ll learn from internationally-renowned lecturers and award-winning film makers who’ll help you to advance your practical and theoretical understanding of film-making.

This Master’s is geared towards developing committed film makers. You’ll have access to industry-standard equipment, including high-end cameras, a professional on-campus film studio and edit suites with post-production software.
