Creative Media Production (with a foundation year) BA (Hons)

Drama is never far away from the world of broadcasting, whether you’re breaking a major news story or producing a TV soap.

BA (Hons) Creative Media Production is an exciting practical exploration of the media industries, exploring a broad knowledge from a UK and global perspective, and an understanding of their branding, development, contexts and creative relationships.

You will gain a range of media production skills, offering insight into the critical and conceptual models of how content for broadcast media are created and understood by audiences.

Through negotiated and personalised projects, it provides a multi-skilling approach, where you will master the pre-production, on-set and studio production and post-production practices for television, radio, online outputs with visual and audio work to entertain and hold audiences, whether you intend to work in drama or documentary production for the small screen, such as Netflix or produce news for audio and visual platforms.

You can also learn about reporting and presenting and how to work with performers to create your work. You will build your creative portfolio to gain employment in a range of media production roles, start your own production company or go on to postgraduate study.

On successful completion of study, we will issue the following award: BA (Hons) Creative Media Production.
