Film is a billion-dollar business. Careers in the industry can range from direction to casting, lighting to sound or even location research. Regardless, opportunities are global. Choosing film studies will give students the creative and practical skills needed to compete in a fast-growing industry. Most students go on to study at university and others gain apprenticeships in the film or media industry. Most universities, including the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge, offer degrees up to Master’s level in areas of film studies.
Students will need a minimum of three grade 4s and three grade 5s at GCSE including a grade 5 in English and a grade 4 in Maths. Additional Information: We will consider 1 Vocational qualification in place of a GCSE as long as a grade 5 is achieved in English.
During the course, students will learn about a wide range of films from the early days of silent cinema right through to present-day Hollywood blockbusters. There will be two exams, assessing students on their knowledge of films and film making and global film making perspectives. Students will also have the opportunity to produce their own short film or screenplays in state-of-the-art facilities.
