Overview

This course is perfect for the creative types. Upon graduation students will be ready to break into the world of cinema, the stage and behind the scenes - and a whole range of other graduate careers in the arts, media, education, and the creative industries. They don’t stop there though, they make sure students know the theory behind theater and the screen too. Students study themes in drama such as gender, identity, tragedy, human rights, devising and playwriting. Their film modules explore directing, screenwriting, classic and contemporary texts and many aspects of screen media, from cinema to social media. Students also gain the skills in technical theater and film production, like design and stage management, camerawork, editing and film-making. They will still write essays as in any other Humanities degree, but alongside honing their critical writing and thinking, they will also have the chance to be assessed on their creativity, performance and technical skills. What makes them different? The Department also offers many modules which bring the disciplines of film and drama together. Their modules Directing Actors for Film and Introduction to Screenwriting give students a seamless mix of both film and drama so they can excel throughout the screen and the stage. Their high-spec facilities mean students always got somewhere to rehearse and edit. Students also will be offered careers guidance and training, preparing them for the career they want upon graduation. This course is based in the Department of Literature, Film and Theatre Studies. Students will be taught by academics who are also practitioners in their field and have significant experience in the industry – from film-makers to award-winning theater specialists. They are are ranked number 1 in the UK for film studies (Dance, Drama and Cinematics, Times Good University Guide 2019).
