You’ll also develop a better understanding of how to examine, interpret and write about film.

Compulsory modules:

Expand all

I, Filmmaker

I, Filmmaker offers a creative and reflective space for you to explore means of self-expression in the medium of film. The module recognises that film has a central role in visual cultures in claiming and understanding identity. British cinema culture has historically celebrated personal filmmaking and creativity with movements such as the Free Cinema group claiming that ‘no film can be too personal’. It is important for you to recognise the impact of your own identity on your filmmaking and to acquire a broad knowledge of the concept of the personal filmmaker and the auteur. The module will help you to develop a perspective on your own ‘life journey’ and reflect on your identity in a range of contexts. The traits of personal filmmaking will be explored across a range of critical case studies, with the opportunity to workshop various means of developing your cinematic voice, before planning and producing your own short film. The aim is to guide you in becoming an imaginative, self-aware filmmaker who is confident in expressing themselves through film.

Storytelling on Screen

Storytelling on Screen recognises that sharing a story is one of the most universal and important elements of human communication. It is how we make sense of the world, predating written language by thousands of years. Stories and narrative are the fundamental way in which individuals, societies and industries function and how they represent their realities and fantasies. The power of narrative to persuade and influence on a mass level, and mould identity on an individual level, should not be underestimated. Representation through narrative is power. Politicians, commerce and the media industry know this well. Stories greatly impact on how we look at life. The module will introduce you to the origins of story creation and examine how stories function as one of the underpinning elements of all media production, connecting creators to an audience. The module will also develop the creative processes in relation to storytelling and provide practical engagement with the challenges of story production. You will be introduced to the orthodox conventions of storytelling on screen, consider this in the current context of multiplatform production, and gain practical experience in exploring, researching, creating and developing stories for the screen in response to tutor-directed briefs.

Module code: MED1455

Working in Creative Industries

Working in Creative Industries is designed to enhance your employability and skill set by introducing you to the various sub-sectors of the constantly changing and evolving media and creative industries. The module will develop your knowledge and understanding of economic and policy concepts as well as issues within the context of the media and creative industries. The aim is to develop your understanding of contemporary media settings, from industrial to political, scholarly and practical. You will examine the television, film, animation, music, print, performing arts and online digital industries while also developing research skills.

You will be encouraged to explore areas around convergence, the diversity of experience and the reception of popular culture.

Module code: MED1446

New Venture Creation

New Venture Creation introduces you to business planning and the development stages in business start-up. You will organise and evaluate theoretical perspectives in a practical setting, informing your future learning processes and outcomes. A key element of the module is a review of entrepreneurial skills and small business development through theoretical concepts of enterprise, self-employment and small business management. This module creates an awareness of emergent business types and their markets, the factors behind small business start-ups, entry routes, funding, and barriers. A practical element includes foundational steps towards a business start-up project which will require you to demonstrate key skill areas such as the development stages of business planning, communication, negotiation, self-management, and problem solving. The combination of these aspects will enable you to critically engage in academic thinking and writing about enterprise, evaluate business ideas, choose one main idea, strategically conceptualise that idea, and prepare a business plan and pitch for how the idea could be brought successfully to market.

Photography

Photography covers the basics in digital camera use and post-production, semiotic and photography theory. As practical knowledge of camera equipment and composition are required to fully exploit the creative possibilities of visual media, this module is designed to develop your camera skills, technical competence, and understanding of composition and photography. It concentrates on the principles of stills photography and develops your understanding of the photographic image that will be fundamental in developing knowledge and understanding for all visual communication. You will learn how to use digital photographic cameras and consider composition, framing, colour and post-production. The module also outlines how to ‘read’ photographs and use theoretical models (semiotics) to underpin your understanding. All work will be undertaken using digital technology and basic training in the use of cameras and Adobe Photoshop will be provided. No previous experience is required, and all equipment will be provided by the University.

Module code: MED1447

Language 1

Language 1 is ideal if you want to learn a new language, or further develop your current language skills, as an integrated part of this degree. The module will be taught in an interactive, communicative manner, using authentic materials in the target language. Emphasis will be placed on all four areas of reading, writing, speaking and listening. You will play an active role in the classes, engaging in role-plays, short conversations, videos, authentic texts and listening materials. You will also be encouraged to reflect on your own learning needs. The module accommodates varying language levels and you will be divided into groups accordingly. On enrolment to the module, you will complete a language induction form and be placed into a language level group appropriate for your prior knowledge of the language. Please note, while we will endeavour to accommodate varying language levels per module, this is not always possible. While you can join the module with some prior experience of your target language, you will not be able to study a language you are already fluent or proficient in.

Your second year on BA (Hons) Film will present you with fresh opportunities to challenge yourself. With our support, you’ll broaden your experience and understanding by producing a short documentary. This module will equip you with technical and creative filmmaking skills. It’ll provide you with experience in problem-solving, analysis, evaluation, and teamwork. Optional modules will allow you to focus on film direction, genres, or animation. You could also choose to spend time on work placement.

The module equips you with technical and creative film making skills, as well as providing experience in problem solving, analysis, evaluation and the application of skills outside the classroom, while working collaboratively on a production. The module will develop your awareness of budget constraints, ethics, logistics and legalities, while considering the notion of truth in documentaries and the importance of representation and voice. Practice will be informed by a critical awareness of the history and context of documentary storytelling. Working from a tutor-directed brief, designed to give opportunities for creative autonomy and expression that engage the real world in documentary story-telling methods, you will experiment with techniques and attend workshops that focus on the development of creative practices and processes. You will also be encouraged to consider the limits of your knowledge and how this can impact upon a production.

Module code: MED2341

Researching Film

Module code: MED2340

Genre Film

Genre Film will develop your knowledge and experience of the technical, creative, organisational and practical demands involved in genre film production. Films are frequently categorised by their genre – for example, the repertory of attributes that differentiate a comedy or a road movie from a horror film or a Bollywood musical. Most of the films produced by the world’s film industries fall within these recognisable popular genres, which are enjoyed both for the repetition of the familiar, but also for the novel changes to recognised formulae. Filmmaking in the UK has nurtured some specific domestic genres, including the ‘Hammer Horror’ and ‘Carry On’ films, and stamped its own impression on existing genres, for example the crime and gangster genre or the social problem film. Of relevance also is the way that independent filmmakers have challenged or actively transformed genre categories to give voices to ideas frequently denied expression. The overarching theme of this module is the development of the creative processes in relation to genre. You will be introduced to the conventions of the genre film and experiment with techniques. The relationships between technical, creative and aesthetic choices will be considered in relation to the real-world issues of market practices.

Entrepreneurship and Innovation

Entrepreneurship and Innovation explores characteristics, behaviours, attributes, and skills of entrepreneurship as well as the whole process of innovation from idea to product development and the conditions that must be fulfilled for innovation to thrive. The module explores research from a number of areas to highlight the importance of factors such as social and economic capital, local and regional infrastructure and the role of government in enabling (or disabling) innovation. You'll develop your entrepreneurial skills, identifying opportunities and developing ventures. On top of this, you'll consider the risk environment including legal issues, funding issues, start-up and growth strategies. This module provides you with the ability to act entrepreneurially to generate, develop and communicate ideas, manage and exploit intellectual property, gain support, and deliver successful outcomes.

Module code: BUS2229

Fan Cultures and Subcultures

Fan Cultures and Subcultures requires you to critically evaluate the development of a variety of media audiences into actively engaged consumers and, potentially, producers of content of their own. The module will focus on the rapid growth in the development of fan culture in recent years and situate fan cultures within the context of wider audience behaviour. You will analyse the history of subcultural modes of active fandom, dating back to the cultural revolution of the rock and roll age, Hollywood cinema and the development of television in the aftermath of World War II. You will also be encouraged to engage with research methods appropriate to the study of media audiences and subcultural communities, including quantitative and qualitative methods such as surveys, ethnography or focus groups as means of developing primary data.

Festivals

Festivals introduces you to the theoretical and practical aspects of festival conception, curation and exhibition within creative arts. A broad approach will be taken to examine the creative sector with the potential for you to specialise in film or television, if you wish. Covering the development of exhibitions and the practicalities of curating creative arts programmes and festivals, this innovative module enables a critical and applied exploration of this lively sector. It draws on the expertise of visiting professionals, such as curators, festival programmers and archivists, in addition to the rigorous scholarship of film academics, to provide you with the opportunity to engage with partners outside of the classroom environment and undertake case studies.

Module code: MED2349

Fantastic Visions and Where to Find Them

Fantastic Visions and Where to Find Them spans a wide range of texts and genres, from feature films and television, to games, comics, graphic novels, novels and internet content, as it engages you with fantasy film and media. As a broad category, fantasy and the fantastic incorporates horror, science fiction, the Gothic, the supernatural, surrealism, fairy tales, myths, legends, magical realms and musicals. It can facilitate discussions relating to socio-political contexts, allegory, ideology, industrial contexts, franchises, adaptation, aesthetics, gender, identification and representation. This module draws upon a broad range of critical and contextual approaches, including psychoanalytic and cultural theories of the uncanny, monstrosity, the body, estrangement and enchantment, and enables you to interrogate the design, function and impact of fantastic film and media.

Module code: MED2342

Animation on Screen

Animation on Screen provides a critical and historical approach to the various forms of animation. Being a popular mainstream form in a variety of media including television, film and game, animation provides a rich field for study. Furthermore, the subject of animation exists within a unique environment which draws upon elements of fine art, graphics, illustration, film, and TV production. With a history to rival live action cinema, animated forms have been at the centre of critical debates around their use, from political propaganda to the relationship with art, to the everyday and the real. A range of critical approaches will be evaluated in the light of animation being a form that shares so much with live action cinema, yet formally proclaims its dissimilarity to it. Encompassing movements such as mainstream, political and avant-garde styles, while encouraging a critical appreciation of diverse animations from around the globe, the module will enable you to recognise and evaluate the nature of animation’s unique potential for communication and artistic expression.

Module code: MED2346

Cinema at the Edge

Cinema at the Edge introduces you to films that are often ‘at the edge’ aesthetically, politically and conceptually. They are often marginalised in academic film discourse because of their modes of production or content, perceptions of quality, and their manner of consumption which is often outside mainstream exhibition. The module introduces you to a range of films which push technical and aesthetic boundaries, challenge industry practice, and which disrupt established taste hierarchies. You will explore theoretical frameworks and concepts such as experimental, avant-garde, cult, trash and exploitation. The aim is to interrogate the oppositional relationship that exists between such cinema and mainstream filmmaking, investigate the contexts of production, circulation and reception, while analysing the challenges such films pose to ideas of morality, taste and propriety, hegemonic institutions and established conventions of filmmaking.

Module code: MED2344

Directing Film

Directing Film addresses the processes and practices associated with the role of the film director. While strongly contested, it is often the role of director that is perceived as being the creative force of a film. This module examines directorial processes and practices associated with short and feature film making, as well as relevant theoretical debates, that have situated the director as auteur. You will find your directorial voice and develop your understanding of visual language and how that relates to your own practice. You will take part in practical workshops and engage with relevant theoretical debates and a selection of case studies. Examining the development of style, craft and directorial voice, you will locate your own practice within a critical context, produce a digital portfolio that showcases your identity as a director, and direct a short monologue to demonstrate how your directorial identity translates to the screen.

Module code: MED2345

The final year will develop your learning further. You’ll complete practical filmmaking projects and an independent research project or dissertation of your choice, supported by a supervisor. Optional final year modules include World Film and Animation and Representation. The practical filmmaking projects and the development of a show reel help you showcase your knowledge and skills to future employers.

Filmmaking Project 1: Pre-Production

Filmmaking Project 1: Pre-Production provides a technical framework for you to apply to your film making, both within university and the professional sector. The module develops your understanding of the pre-production filmmaking process, equipping you with knowledge of the professional practices of production planning. It also enables you to plan ways to conceptualise complex critical or theoretical material through the audio-visual medium of film. You will have the opportunity to investigate important production considerations and to understand the procedures involved in the production of pre-production documentation. The aim is to synthesise your knowledge and skills as you prepare a moving image product. You will work on individual thesis outlines, then devise a fictional narrative that explores this conceptual area in a group project.

Module code: MED3284

Filmmaking Project 2: Production

Filmmaking Project 2: Production enables you to work independently to produce a film at a professional level. You will gain experience of producing digital and HD film within the confines of a limited budget, working with a larger production team and within a restricted timescale. The independent film genre provides you with the experience of working within industry standards. As with the independent film sector, you will be encouraged to think independently, be resourceful and work flexibly as part of a team. The independent film project you undertake may take the form of an individual piece of work, or a group film, which may form the basis of a showreel for potential employers. You will be expected to make creative decisions on both a practical and intellectual level. The film will be a meaningful synthesis of knowledge and skills, communicating a topic from your degree through a fictional narrative.

Module code: MED3285

Dissertation/Research Project

Dissertation/Research Project offers you the opportunity to undertake an in-depth personal research project, under supervision, and explore a range of relevant research methodologies and presentational formats. You will gain a thorough knowledge of your chosen subject area and be expected to shape that knowledge to produce a final submission that demonstrates your ability to locate the material within the wider contexts of your discipline. The project will require the consideration and discussion of methodological and/or epistemological issues, as well as a reflection on the ethical implications of research. The dissertation will allow you to work independently, with a supervisor, to explore areas of contemporary academic interest, consider issues of current or historical industry practice, and critically analyse case studies or products within specific cultural and social contexts.

Module code: MED3299

The creation of a showreel and ripomatic will encourage you to think about your own career progression and pursue specialist interests, while developing an online portfolio will help you to identify and reflect on your own achievements and potential as you shape your personal profile and career strategy. You will be provided with models of good practice in relation to completing online portfolios, CVs and additional media content, while gaining an up-to-date insight into the creative jobs market.

Module code: MED3283

Animation and Representation

Animation and Representation examines what animation as a medium can tell us about our shifting cultures and societies. The module will analyse animation to determine how different forms of the medium have presented ideologies and issues concerning representation. The module will examine a range of animated examples that fully represent the diversity of styles, techniques and technologies that have emerged through the history of animation. The case studies will invite the opportunity to explore broader social, political, historical and aesthetic paradigms in the way they are illustrated, articulated and negotiated across complementary axes of animated style and representation.

Module code: MED3282

The module emphasises collaboration, communication, and risk management, equipping you with the skills and mindset needed for success in the ever-evolving landscape of entrepreneurship and enterprise.

Module code: BUS3079

World Film

World Film examines global cinema(s) beyond Hollywood, from significant national and regional cinemas, diasporic and ‘minor’ cinemas, as well as associated filmmakers and film practitioners who have either helped to establish a national cinema or played an influential role in the industry globally. The 20th century established the economic and stylistic dominance of mainstream cinema produced in North America, popularly known as Hollywood cinema. This module introduces you to films produced outside of the dominant Hollywood/US media industries, encouraging a broader knowledge of global cinema, significant national cinemas and cinematic cultures. The module also explores the industrial and political contexts, as well as the institutional players, that affect the production and circulation of films produced around the world, outside of Hollywood. You will examine a range of key texts within their cultural, social, political and historical contexts, learning about significant developments and influences, both within and across cinema cultures.
