Creative Documentary by Practice MFA
About
For students who can demonstrate communicative and artistic achievement to BA level, the MFA offers students the opportunity to develop non-fiction filmmaking as a creative research practice 鈥� making films which interrogate and explore the contemporary world. Drawing on broad based anthropological thought about the social and cultural world, we produce filmmakers who are imaginative, risk-taking听and push听boundaries in the field.
In the first year, students will create three short films. In the second year, students will produce a graduation film project exploring a subject of their choice, supervised by an industry mentor.
