MA Producción Cinematográfica

Times are changing in film production. The processes we’re used to no longer correlate with budgets, production techniques or distribution methods, but the machine hasn’t evolved along with its component parts.

The film industry needs artists who can adapt to changing production environments; practitioners who have the ability to invent new paradigms in storytelling. If your interest in film production extends beyond the standard, and into a cutting-edge, practice-based approach by way of emerging workflows and frontier technology, then this is the course for you. You may have just finished a media production degree, have an abiding interest in telling stories and scriptwriting, or already be working in the film industry but want to gain more experimental or academic experience.

Studying at Salford’s campus in MediaCity places you in the heart of the UK’s thriving media industry. Here, you will employ a rigorous process of artistic self-analysis and reflection, while developing as a versatile and nimble filmmaker - through a discipline that views perceived limitations as opportunities for creative expansion. You will develop skills in all aspects of film production and collaboration, working on practical projects and learning from industry professionals.

You will be encouraged to engage with radical new ideas of how filmmaking processes can be led by technology, the artist, in-house teams or economic forces that reflect the future of film production – leaving the past behind.

You will:

• Be taught by specialist staff and industry professionals
• Study at our MediaCity campus - one of the UK's leading media hubs
• Use state-of-the-art, industry-standard kit
