**Overview**<br/><br/>This MA is for you if you love to be creative and you’re brimming with ideas and concepts – but you want to understand the theory behind your passions too. <br/><br/>Film and television are multi-billion-pound global industries that play a crucial role in shaping how we understand the world around us. <br/><br/>On our MA Film, Television and Creative Practice you will master the essential skills for a career in film and television, in a pioneering centre for the subject. <br/><br/>You’ll develop your creative and critical skills through an exciting mix of practical work and studies of media history and theory. <br/><br/>You’ll graduate with practical and creative skills for the job market combined with a deep understanding of the social, cultural, political, industrial, and aesthetic aspects of film. <br/><br/>**About This Course**<br/><br/>Prepare to combine the development of your existing creative skills in film and television production with a fascinating grounding in the historical and theoretical approaches to the two media. <br/><br/>Your core modules will focus on creativity and developing ideas, the study of media forms, short film, and video production – giving you a strong base of knowledge. You’ll then have free rein to pick complementary modules from a range of options covering areas such as gender in media, Hollywood cinema, and national and international film cultures. <br/><br/>One of the most important aspects of your MA is the dissertation-by-practice: an audio-visual project combining your intellectual and theoretical knowledge with your practical skills, supervised by a faculty member. This is your chance to focus in depth on a subject that inspires you and takes you closer to your career goals. <br/><br/>Your studies will come to life in several different ways. As well as lectures, seminars, and film screenings, you will have access to UEA’s Television Studio and our state-of-the-art Media Suite, packed with innovative media technologies including editing suites, cameras, sound equipment, a sound studio, and a digitization suite. You’ll have the opportunity to be fully trained in how to use this equipment, deepening your understanding of how film and television is produced. <br/><br/>We are also home to the extensive East Anglian Film Archive, a unique resource which you can make use of during your time here. And we have close links with the British Film Institute in London. <br/><br/>Graduates from our MA frequently progress to PhD study and have gone on to rewarding careers in various fields including archiving, academia, journalism, and the film and television industries. <br/><br/>**Disclaimer**<br/><br/>Course details are subject to change.
