Our MA Filmmaking course provides a stimulating, supportive and professional environment in which students can freely yet rigorously develop their unique individual voice and equip themselves with the skills to transform dreams into cinematic realities.

The programme is designed to support those who wish to work professionally in the film industry either in fiction, documentary or experimental filmmaking, including immersive virtual reality productions.

Students make three films over the course of the year (a documentary, a fiction film, and then a graduation film in any genre). They combine theory and production in these film practice modules, while also extending their knowledge and understanding of the context of filmmaking in two other classroom-based modules.

Teaching on this master's is undertaken by active and award-winning film practitioners. Students also have the opportunity to attend specialist industry events at the Glasgow Film Festival. Opportunities also exist to learn from the professionals who work in Film City and, on occasion, to make use of the Film City facilities to complete post-production on their films.
