This Masters degree is designed to offer students an intensive and increasingly specialised programme that will equip them for the challenges of entering a film and television industry that is undergoing unprecedented and rapid change. Over time, we expect the MA to foster a distinguished roster of filmmakers and television innovators – as directors, producers, writers, cinematographers or editors.

Our facilities
The equipment and facilities available to the course are of the highest quality found in professional film- and programme-making. A new £24 million departmental building on the Heslington East campus houses a further £6million investment in:

* a sound stage and (five- and three-camera) television studios
* a 148-seat cinema equipped with a 12-metre screen, DTS 5.1 sound, and 35mm film and Barco 2K digital projectors
* rehearsal rooms
* RED cameras (among others) and lenses
* full tungsten and daylight lighting kits (including HMIs)
* a dedicated graduate-only post-production lab running Final Cut Pro
* picture-finishing suites running Flame/Smoke/Lustre, as well as Nucoda Film Master, a motion-picture DI/grading workstation that is typically found in many of the best Soho postproduction facilities
* audio postproduction suites including two dubbing theatres and foley/ADR, all running Protools
* graduate-only facilities including study rooms (with full access to the department’s media servers) and common room
