This MA acquaints you with what is vital and original in present culture of moving images. You will explore current changes in film and screen-based media and their historical sources, from technologies and aesthetics to global contexts of production and consumption. You will learn to critically evaluate the scope and aims of film studies today. You will develop your research skills by writing a dissertation that consolidates this learning and prepares you for further study or engagement in today's film and screen media. We are currently also developing practice-oriented courses for you to have the opportunity to study the making of images alongside theory.

Teaching and supervision draw on the diverse research strengths of the globally renowned academics at one of the world's leading media and communications departments. You are taught by scholars of international standing who have expertise in new screen technologies; in film theory and its history; in early cinema and the media archaeology of modernity; in artist’s film; and in non-fiction film (e.g., documentary and avant-garde).
