For students who haven’t made films yet, or who need an extended introduction to the course, the first year of this four-year Film Production course offers a thorough grounding in the discipline.
You’ll work alongside Year 0 Photography students and explore the relationship between sound and still imagery, the framing of spaces and places, theoretical perspectives on representation, storytelling for the camera, and you’ll develop your own moving image project.
We believe in learning through doing, which is why this course is 75% practical and 25% theoretical.
