Media Production – (M.A.)

The UK is a world leader in Media Production. As an example, international sales of screen formats are a now a regular source of substantial earnings to the UK economy. This MA course enables participants to explore the creative possibilities and boundaries of contemporary media, working in television, video, web design, audio and photography alongside writing for and about the media.

The course includes practical hands-on projects using our newly refurbished television and radio studios, cameras and audio equipment, based on a structured approach to research, writing, presentation and production. There is an emphasis on media futures and developments yet to come, while also developing a knowledge of media business and media law. This is ideal for you whether you are a graduate continuing from your BA or someone in the industry who wants time and space in a supportive yet rigorous atmosphere to look at where and how you want to work next.

You will benefit from Coventry University´s established relationships with regional and national media organisations and our long-standing experience of research, practical work and teaching in the field. Current and established media practitioners are part of a regular visiting programme meaning students form contacts with and knowledge of the UK media industries. Placements will be sought either with UK companies or on professional production projects with appropriate international partners.
