Content Tabs

As a student, you will lead teams made up from the other disciplines at the School to produce at least three films to industry standard. You will undertake a Cannes Festival work placement and will be individually mentored by a successful producer through the second year of the course.

As a graduate, you may well go on to work as a producer or executive in the UK and/or internationally. Typically, new graduates combine their own project development with paid employment in various roles across the film and TV industries (assistants to producers, development associates, producing short commissions).

 

COURSE FACILITIES

You will be working at the only UK film school with its own film studio alongside a 4K television studio, rehearsal stages and exhaustive production facilities, giving you invaluable experience that reflects the Industry.

Funding Available

If you’re successful at gaining a place on the course, you will be contacted by our funding team with details on how to apply for one of these scholarships.
