Film and Television Studies Brunel University of London

Overview

The Film and Television Studies degree delivered by Brunel University of London  shares a common first year with the Film Production BA, providing you with an opportunity to study video practice alongside a range of modules that focus upon how screen media have been variously theorised.

Careers and your future

With one of Brunel’s film degrees, you can head out into the world of work secure in the knowledge that you have access to multiple avenues of opportunity – and that there is no single route you must follow.

Many of our students go on to take up production and post-production roles in the film and television industries in the UK and beyond: amongst our alumni there are TV presenters, newsreaders, screen actors, production managers, editors, camera operators, and award-winning independent filmmakers.

As well as gaining a firm grounding in the theoretical and practical aspects of film and television while you are a student with us, you will enhance your transferable employment skills. You will develop your written and spoken communication, presentation skills and your ability to work productively and efficiently in a team.

We encourage students to think expansively in terms of how they might apply their skill set and we have developed close links not only with film and television production companies but also with post-production houses, charities, marketing companies, corporate video producers, and podcasting studios. In recent years our students have completed short placements with Scott Free Productions (Napoleon), Shondaland (Bridgerton), IMG Sports, the British Red Cross, Rex Brown Studios, NextShoot, Antonia Claudie, CaviarTV, and the National Theatre.

Brunel’s Student Development team is a dedicated service that are committed to increasing our students' employability, helping you to develop the skills and experience you need to stand out in the job market. They will help you research placements, refine your CV and give you mock interviews and will still be on-hand to help you for two years after you graduate.
