Our Media and Television Production course will equip you with the practical and creative skills necessary to start your professional journey. Benefit from multiple on-campus studio spaces and facilities as you learn video and audio production, camera operation, directing, editing and ideas development. You'll also experience a solid theoretical underpinning that ensures you understand the economic, social, legal and cultural contexts in which media has been, and is, produced, emerging as a confident and well-rounded practitioner ready to share your stories with the world. Our Media and Television Production degree equips you with the knowledge needed to succeed in the dynamic world of media. You'll develop essential technical skills, such as audio and video editing, camera operation, and animation. Explore emerging trends and sectors, and work on a variety of projects, from factual documentaries to drama productions.

While our course emphasises practical skills, we also foster a deep understanding of the media industry, key practices, regulation, and organisations. Throughout the course, you'll have the opportunity to develop and pursue your specific media and television interests, undertaking a large-scale project, such as a television documentary, podcast, or dissertation, allowing you to delve deeper into your chosen area of specialisation, towards the end of your degree.

Our department boasts TV studios, extensive recording spaces, post-production facilities, and a wide range of equipment, including video cameras, audio recording devices, and specialist kit.
