Film MA

MA Film (previously MA Moving Image and Sound) offers an innovative and collaborative exploration of film as a versatile medium for storytelling, artistic expression, and social commentary. Through a blend of theoretical, critical inquiry and hands-on production workshops, you will push the boundaries of film and sound to create impactful and ethically conscious work. You will challenge conventions and experiment through text, image, sound, multimedia, emerging digital technologies, and content structures. The course will support you to develop your unique voice as a filmmaker to create original and innovative work.

The course provides comprehensive training in all aspects of film production, including producing, screenwriting, directing, cinematography, production design, sound design, and editing. Through engaging in professional processes from preproduction to post-production, you will acquire practical and critical skills necessary for creating impactful work. By working within the UK production frameworks, you’ll gain a thorough understanding of legal, moral, and ethical standards, aligning your practice with industry expectations and standards like the BFI Diversity Standards.
