BA (Hons) Film, TV & Digital Media Production

Module Description for Level 3, Semester 2

Completion of Major Production (40 credits)

The Major Production is the culmination of the practical, research and creative learning undertaken on the degree and this 40-credit unit is arguably the most important both for the degree and also as a showcase of skills upon graduation.

The Major Production is a film in any genre or format which develops a suitable level of specialist accomplishment in a primary and secondary area.

Students will need to work on a set number of fellow students’ projects within specialist roles.

Professional Skills (20 credits)

This module has a twofold design. It reviews the learning that has taken place throughout the degree, and examines the student’s prospects in the workplace. It demands a level of honesty on the part of the student, encouraging them to analyse their individual skills and experiences and gauge how they best fit within identified emerging trends.

Students will draw and expand on the issues encountered over the entire degree. To that end the module will test the analytical, research and forward thinking abilities of the student.

In addition there is a personal self reflective element which will allow students to enhance and test their ability to critically analyse their individual qualitative skills and strengths.

These modules are taken simultaneously as the final modules of the programme.

"Production is a profoundly collaborative team process and any model that forces (people) to form a team and work together to make a film has to be good. I really think this practical element, even if just making a very simple short piece, is a huge plus to the course."

Steve Matthews, Size 9 Productions
