Bring your creative ideas to life using industry-standard sound, camera and lighting equipment, and learn how to apply technology and craft in the pursuit of your artistic vision. From narrative design, through selection and testing of cameras and lenses, to creating digital production workflows and using professional sound and picture finishing software including Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premiere Pro, Da Vinci Resolve, and Logic Pro, you will be encouraged to develop an extensive portfolio of work in addition to that produced for assessment.The Digital Film Production degree course combines a study of audiovisual technologies and production processes, with contextual investigations and production experience. Youll develop knowledge, understanding and skills relevant to the production of digital film content and to the wider film, television and video industries.Youll focus on fundamental technical concepts, including the physics of sound and light being recorded during production (and the tools and techniques required to do this), as well as the technology used to digitally store and manipulate both images and audio in post-production.When you graduate, you will be versatile, technically literate, and creative: well-equipped to perform a variety of craft roles within film, television and video production and will bridge the gap between technology specialists and creative artists.Enhancing employability skillsEngaging with industry and gaining work experience during your studies is essential if you intend to have a competitive edge when you start to apply for work after graduation.
