Fancy working on James Bond films, Dr Who or music videos for Stormzy? These are just some of the exciting projects where our Film Production graduates have found work.

Our students also regularly win awards, including prizes from the Royal Television Society, and they show their films at festivals around the world.

From your first week as a student here, you’ll get hands-on with industry-leading tech and tools. And you’ll immerse yourself in location work – with the chance to attend a residential film shoot too.

We also offer a Creative Media Production degree, where you’ll learn how to write, edit, and produce content for a range of audio and visual media. We’ll nurture your talents whether you want to work in broadcasting or online journalism, podcasting or radio, or documentaries or dramas.

Alongside all the degrees within our Creative Industries Department, our film and media courses prepare students for careers through storytelling, sense-making, and collaboration. You’ll work on diverse projects and develop the confidence to work across disciplines.

It’s the perfect platform for your creative ambitions.
