BA (Hons) Film and Media Studies

... United Kingdom
... University of Chester

Course Overview

Our course gives students the opportunity to explore film, television, and other media from a variety of perspectives, examining key moments, movements, and events that have impacted and shaped the dynamic creative industries.

Students are able to study specific directors in film history, examine Hollywood’s dominance and explore contemporary cinema. You will also explore the role of media in society, its continuing transformation, and the rapid development of forms and technologies.

Alongside the theoretical study, you will engage in a variety of practical workshops and sessions to develop creative and technical film and media production skills.

In the final year, students are encouraged to focus on aspects of film and media that they are keen to research independently. This is a great opportunity for students to pursue their own interests and specialism and understand their relevance to a career in the creative industries.

Graduates of this course could enter a range of careers in and beyond the creative industries. This could include working for independent companies or broadcasters and roles such as researchers, editors, or film reviewers.
