On this course you won’t simply be replicating what you’ve seen on screen – we want you to be an innovator and shape the future of television. You’ll be producing your own programmes, fictional as well as factual, both in the studio and on location, as you gain crucial hands-on experience and a solid grounding in real-world professional television production.
This course combines a hands-on professional approach with academic study of the television industry. You’ll have access to broadcast-quality resources, new studios and postproduction facilities, including a new film studio and two Ultra High Definition broadcast standard multicamera TV studios. Professional standard resources will also include Sony FS5 and Panasonic AC160/AG371 cameras, SQN sound mixers and Avid edit suites.
You will complete either a four- or 30-week placement. Not only will you put the theory and skills learnt on the course into action, but you’ll also be able to make contacts, enhance your CV and ultimately improve your future career prospects.
You’ll be taught by practitioners, eminent academics and industry-seasoned guest speakers, so by the end of your degree you’ll have gained a complementary blend of academic skills and industry-realistic practical ones. This ensures you’ll have a thorough understanding of the issues surrounding TV production, as well as all the practical skills you’ll need.
