Film and television are multi-billion pound, interrelated global industries that play a crucial role in shaping how we see the world around us. UEA has pioneered and remains a leading institution in the study of these media forms. In this degree you will explore the social, cultural, political, industrial, historical and aesthetic dimensions of film and television through case studies. Topics might include the global phenomenon of Doctor Who, the world-famous Marvel Comics adaptations, Japanese film, or American cinema and screenwriting. Alongside your theoretical studies, you’ll have the opportunity to discover how to produce your own film and TV content and explore writing for different media.
In the first year you will cover all the essentials in the subject. In the second and third years you can choose specialist modules in the areas that interest you the most. We cover a range of topics in cinema and television, from the earliest experiments in moving pictures to the modern cult hits and multimedia franchises that define the market today. You can also choose creative practice options in areas such as making short films and working in TV studio production, deepening your knowledge of how film and television texts are produced. |
