Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Film (P303)

Program Description

BA (Hons) Film provides an in-depth grounding in the technical processes, creative skills and production practices necessary for a career in the media and creative industries. From the outset, students are encouraged to think critically and creatively, developing their skills so that they can convey their ideas through practical work.

Students will be taught to a high technical standard through the craft of script writing, producing, directing, documentary film-making, production design, cinematography, editing, sound design and other roles that are instrumental to industrial and independent film-making practices.

The course provides the opportunity to study at a partner university overseas, or complete a work placement in industry in the third year.

Throughout their studies, students will strive towards the goal of being an intelligent, creative and contemporary film-maker. By identifying their strengths and perfecting their craft within established film-making roles, they will increasingly define their own area of study and develop an individual creative practice, so that by graduation they will be capable of producing creative and original works of the highest quality.
