Course content

Do you want to develop the creative vision, leadership and storytelling skills needed to direct film and television projects? Directing sits at the heart of filmmaking, shaping performance, storytelling and the creative vision of a production. On the MA Directing course you’ll develop your voice as a director while building the practical, leadership and collaborative skills needed to work in film and television.

You’ll study in a collaborative postgraduate film production environment that reflects professional industry practice. Working closely with students in producing, cinematography, screenwriting and editing, you’ll develop your skills within real-world production structures that mirror how film and television projects are made in the UK.
