Film Studies

Course summary

At its core Film Studies is the critical and analytical deconstruction of challenging filmic texts, products and theories from around the world and through modern history. It also revolves strongly around a thorough understanding of the film industry (globally, contemporary and historically), as well as being a highly creative subject where the creation of original short films and tuition in technical filmmaking is a cornerstone. This subject is highly interesting and teaches important skills, such as critical autonomy. You will learn an appreciation for many modern classic films texts, how and why they were constructed and how they reflect society and culture. Also, you will learn highly valuable ICT skills and develop your own creative skills to produce your own professional-level products. Film Studies is a highly marketable subject to higher education institutions.
