PROGRAMME/COURSE/MODULE: BA in Film & Screen Media
1. Abstract. (mAX 350 -400 WORDS) The BA in Film & Screen Media is designed to support a gradual progression in building students' skills over the course of their academic study; all within an integrated learning path, from BA to MA/MRes to PhD (with both theory and practice options available). Led by internationally recognised experts, and with a thriving component of visiting speakers, guest practitioners and artists in residence, it is designed to immerse students in the history and theory of film and screen media from around the world, from the birth of cinema to the age of the Internet. Its combination of practical and theoretical modules is designed to fully develop students' understanding of the aesthetics and practice of film and screen media and prepare them for the challenges and opportunities of a modern society and with constantly evolving technologies.
