Description of module content:

This is the second of two screen focused modules which will present you with a variety of opportunities to be involved in a range of screen projects. Building on Film production 1, you will develop and extend your skills in short film creation, exploring opportunities to create independent work for web presentation and developing screenplays. Working in groups, you will create a film artefact in any genre (short dramatic film/extended scene/sketches/mini-web series). In addition, you will be cast in two filming projects: the first will be a scene shot by professional staff and the second will be a 5 to 10-minute film, made in collaboration with MFA Film Directing students or other collaborator
