BA (Hons) Creative Media Production is an exciting practical exploration of the media industries, exploring a broad knowledge from a UK and global perspective, and an understanding of their branding, development, contexts and creative relationships. You will gain a range of media production skills, offering insight into the critical and conceptual models of how content for broadcast media are created and understood by audiences.
Through negotiated and personalised projects, it provides a multi-skilling approach, where you will master the pre-production, on-set and studio production and post-production practices for television, radio, online outputs with visual and audio work to entertain and hold audiences, whether you intend to work in drama or documentary production for the small screen, such as Netflix or produce news for audio and visual platforms.
You can also learn about reporting and presenting and how to work with performers to create your work. You will build your creative portfolio to gain employment in a range of media production roles, start your own production company or go on to postgraduate study.
Careers
Creative Media Production will prepare you for a range of creative careers, whether in moving image or audio based production. This includes small screen production (e.g. location scout, director, studio floor manager, researcher, camera and technical operator, production coordinator), media production (from runner to assistant director), radio presentation, screenwriter, archival work and broadcast journalism. Many graduates also set up and manage their own successful independent media production companies and also work in media-related areas such as communications management, media administration, web design, branding marketing and promotion, training and freelance writing.
