Film, Television and Moving Image MA

University of Westminster, London

Our innovative Film, Television and Moving Image MA builds on its prestigious heritage as one of the longest-running degree programmes of its kind in the UK. Through a distinctive mix of creative practice options and academic enquiry, this course emphasises the transformative potential of the screen sector and offers creative practice opportunities at three key stages: screenwriting, production and exhibiting. Taught by experienced practitioners, educators and academics, our curriculum includes an exciting range of activities tailored to meet your career aspirations. You’ll develop core production and critical thinking skills and can choose to specialise in either fiction screenwriting, nonfiction filmmaking, or moving image curation and exhibition. Modules are designed to both enhance your understanding of existing trends in the screen sector and develop the intellectual and creative acumen needed to become a changemaker in your chosen field. The distinctive design of this course provides you with knowledge and experience of the growing synergies between mainstream, innovative and research-led creative practices. This enables you to choose where and how to situate your work for the Major Project, which may be a dissertation or a research-supported creative project in one of our three practice specialisms.
