Course Overview

As a graduate of the BDes (Hons) Special Effects for Film and TV with foundation year, you’ll be able to demonstrate and combine creative skills with high levels of technical ability. The degree offers an exciting spectrum of opportunities, ranging from the highly accurate engineering approach of the product modeller to the imaginative and inventive solutions of a creature or character designer. You’ll also possess a wide range of transferable skills, including teamwork, planning and organisation, working to briefs and deadlines, written and oral communication, presenting work and changes, critical analysis and logical thinking.

General Eligibility

48 UCAS points. Any subjects are acceptable at Level 3. You should also have five GCSEs at grade C or above or grade 4 to 9 (or equivalent), including English and Mathematics. You'll be required to attend an interview and provide a portfolio of appropriate work. Typically, your portfolio will present recent effects-related or project-based work. We'll also take any previous work or experience into account when deciding on your application. The quality of a portfolio will be judged alongside traditional UCAS point bearing qualifications to determine the success of an application. We, therefore, give special consideration to applicants without the above qualifications who have a strong portfolio.

Part Time Work Details

Apprentices will need to be employed by your organization for a minimum of 30 hours per week. Your organization will also need to commit to sponsoring apprentices to complete this qualification.

Language Requirement

  • If English isn’t your first language, you’ll also need IELTS 6.0 with no less than 5.5 in any band (or equivalent). We also accept a range of other English language qualifications
