Integrated Foundation - Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Film and High-End Television Production

The BA (Hons) Film and High-End Television Production with Foundation Year is taught by tutors who are actively working professionals within the film and television industry, with experience across feature films, television dramas, promotional productions, and sports broadcasting. Students train using industry-standard digital cameras comparable to those used in major Hollywood productions and also have the opportunity to work with traditional 35mm celluloid film, a practice offered by only a small number of UK film degrees.

The programme has a strong track record of student success, with graduates winning prestigious industry competitions including the Royal Television Society Awards and the NAHEMI Kodak Student Commercial Awards. Numerous opportunities are provided to gain hands-on experience on real film and television sets, alongside a career-enhancing six-month placement with Malta Production Hub.

The course is designed to immerse students in the most dynamic and challenging areas of contemporary film and high-end television production, preparing them to stand out in a highly competitive global industry. It is particularly suited to those aspiring to create large-scale cinematic projects or high-quality content for streaming platforms such as Netflix and Amazon. Building on the long-established and successful BA (Hons) Film Production programme, this updated and renamed degree reflects the evolving needs of the media sector in the 2020s.

Course content has been adapted to address the growing importance of streaming platforms alongside traditional cinema, while also providing opportunities to experiment with a range of media formats including apps, web video, podcasts, and other digital content, ensuring graduates are well prepared for the multiplatform nature of today’s media landscape.
