Summary
Launch your filmmaking career with Roehampton's new MA Filmmaking, starting September.
This practical, industry-standard course helps you develop your creative voice while gaining technical and professional skills to succeed in today’s film and media industries. Taught by industry-experienced academics, it uniquely focuses on real-world cultural impact, preparing you to engage with public funding bodies and commissioners.
Develop your unique creative voice as a filmmaker while obtaining the technical and professional skills to thrive in today’s film, TV, media and content industries. Students will explore diverse types of filmmaking at the forefront of contemporary storytelling, with an emphasis on cultural and social impact. Today, these are the productions that can ‘cut through’ and get commissioned, with relevant messages and formal innovation for our creative industries.
Drawing on our staff with a track record of award-winning, socially effective films, you will build your creativity, skillset and portfolio with a series of film productions and industry-focused exercises. You’ll learn to navigate the contemporary realities of what makes a film financeable and marketable in today’s world, where public funding is looking for culturally relevant visions and voices, and producers need clear plans for audience distribution and impact.
With practical filmmaking supported by the industry-led and critical-historical insights you need to progress, you will emerge with a portfolio of film and industry projects capped by a major graduation project. Embracing a range of roles including director, cinematographer, sound, producer and editor, you’ll be equipped to become a creative self-starter capable of launching your own projects, as well as a team player able to lead or on-board a production unit to produce briefs for a client or commissioner, in film, TV, content and advertising production and the wider media ecosystem.
