About this course

This creative degree is for students pursuing a career in making media. You will learn the key practical skills you need to create digital content. And you will learn the key contextual skills – from media distribution, business and audiences to how to work and manage in the creative industries – that are necessary to understand the bigger picture and land a job in the media industries. Our BA Media Production is designed to give students a solid grounding in modern-day media, from idea development, creation and production, to postproduction, distribution and consumption. You will build a portfolio of skills, learning through practical work and underpinning critical theory modules.

Our course focuses on contemporary media production as a fast-growing and continually evolving industry.

You will examine trends in media content (e.g. podcasting, TikTok, YouTube) and crossovers with advertising, promotion and influencer culture. As well as enhancing your practical skills in areas such as camerawork, audio recording and video editing, fully understanding media requires knowledge of audiences, how the media and creative industries operate as well as the ethical and legal questions that creative professionals face.

  • Develop your practical skills in creating video content, podcasts, blogs and websites

  • Learn how to create professional content for a variety of audiences and platforms: from screen media to podcasting and creative advertising

  • Focus on career-relevant assessment methods such as creative portfolios, industry reports and reflective essays
