Original post by University of Sunderland Student AmbassadorHello,
It's fantastic that you're interested in Film. You might wish to look at University of Sunderland if you're interested in pursuing a career in screenwriting for films, including knowledge and expertise of pre-production and post-production. The Film Production BA (Hons) course, in particular, I believe would best match your interests.
As I am in my first year of Film production, I can tell you a about this course. A film production at University of Sunderland course will usually cover every stage of the filmmaking process, from pre-production through post-production. Scriptwriting, directing, cinematography, sound design, editing, and distribution are all covered.
It also focuses on the study and analysis of films, as well as the history of cinema, rather than just filmmaking. Cinema Theory, Film Analysis, Genre Studies, Critical Approaches, and Film and Society are among the themes covered.
The course consists of both academic lectures and practical workshops in which you may apply your knowledge in real-world circumstances. You will also get the chance to work with industry-standard equipment and materials.
From day one, you’ll have access to specialized digital cameras, sound recording equipment, lighting kit, Steadicam rigs, and professional editing software packages such as Avid Media Composer, Adobe Premier Pro and Da Vinci Resolve.
A new regional office for the renowned independent production firm Fulwell 73, creators of the Netflix series "Sunderland 'Til I Die," has opened in our David Puttnam Media Centre. So that you may gain firsthand knowledge of and understanding of a top production company's operation.
We have another intriguing course Film Production via Study Centres BA (Hons) at the University of Sunderland that I recommend looking into if you are interested in studying one year abroad.
I hope this was helpful. Please let me know if you have any more queries!
Kind regards,
Mrunali Kalbhor,
