BA (Hons) Media and Television Production

In the first year, you will have the chance to gain a range of practical skills that are the foundation for your practice over the course of your degree. You will have a variety of practical and technical workshops such as audio and video editing and camera operation. As you move through your course, you will be able to hone your practice and develop further specialist skills such as in animation, podcasting, or directing. There are opportunities to work on factual and drama projects as well as explore emerging trends and sectors such as immersive media.

Whilst there is a real focus on practice in this course, this is underpinned by a critical understanding of the media industry, about key practices, regulations, and organizations.

We will encourage you to develop and pursue your particular media and TV interests throughout the course. In Year 3, you will work on a large-scale practical or written project which will enable you to explore your interests further. This could take the form of a television documentary, podcast or a written dissertation exploring a key media-related issue, which will enable you to explore your specific specialist interests.

Along with our recording spaces and post-production facilities, the department has an extensive loan provision which includes a range of video cameras, audio recording devices, and specialist kits.
