Film MA

Our MA Film course offers students the opportunity to hone key skills for a variety of career options in the film and television industry. <br/><br/>You will study in the heart of Cardiff, the capital city of Wales and home to a thriving film and TV industry, including Bad Wolf, Pinewood Studios Wales and BBC Roath Lock, where shows including Doctor Who and Sherlock are filmed. Industry masterclasses, guest lectures and an in-depth work experience opportunity at a Wales-based creative company will help you to build your portfolio and network with industry professionals.<br/><br/>Students on course will be taught via a mix of workshops, seminars, lectures and tutorials, as well as guest lectures and masterclasses from industry professionals. Assessment will be via a series of practical assessments based around live briefs and production projects (70%), combined with written reflections and critical analysis of students’ work (30%).<br/><br/>Applicants who are unsure as to which pathway they should apply for are encouraged to contact the course team for an informal discussion before making an application. Should you choose to apply for more than one pathway, your portfolio should demonstrate your interest and experience in each individual area and therefore more than one portfolio may be required.
