Overview
The emphasis of Film and Television Production course at University of Wolverhampton is firmly on practical film-making and television production work, underpinned with contextual theory throughout, engaging with contemporary issues and emerging trends in film and television production, as well as established film/television theories and practices.
The first two semesters of study provide a range of modules which will allow you to develop your film/television “craft skills” – this may include work with camera, lighting, sound, editing, directing and producing – while working on short film/TV projects of your own devising.
There will be opportunities to collaborate with other students, and you will be encouraged to make contact with, and work with, contributors (e.g. interviewees, actors) from outside of the university. You will also develop your skills as an academic researcher by carrying out research which feeds directly into your film projects.
The course culminates in the Masters Project, where you will be the key creative leader of a film or television production, taking on the role of producer or director.
Potential Career Paths
The course will be useful for anyone seeking to advance their career in media production, arts/media management, or other leadership roles in related creative industries. In media production, this may involve developing your career in specialist areas such as directing, producing, editing or cinematography.
