BA Acting and Digital Creativity
About this course
Acting and digital creativity is a combination that recognises the expanding landscape of contemporary performance and storytelling. Acting trains you in the fundamental craft of inhabiting a character and telling a story through the body, voice, and imagination, developing the skills needed to work on stage and screen. Digital creativity extends that practice into the emerging territory where performance, technology and digital media intersect: interactive narrative, digital storytelling, video and online content, immersive experience, and the growing range of creative forms that sit between traditional performance and digital media. At Liverpool Hope University you will follow a three-year full-time programme that develops your acting skills in a dynamic and ambitious way, equipping you with the knowledge, technique, and creative confidence to work across stage and screen. The digital creativity component gives you skills in the design and production of digital content alongside the critical understanding of how digital culture shapes contemporary storytelling. The programme includes a sandwich year, a year abroad, and a work placement, giving you substantial professional experience and international exposure alongside your creative development. These structured opportunities connect your academic and practical training to the professional contexts in which you will build your career. Graduates of this combination are well placed for careers in theatre, film and television performance alongside the growing world of digital content creation, immersive experience, corporate storytelling, training and facilitation, arts education, and community arts. The digital skills you develop add professional versatility that pure acting graduates may lack, opening doors in digital media production, content strategy, and the creative technology sector. Postgraduate study in acting, digital arts, media, or education is an option for those who wish to develop specialist expertise. For performers who want to engage with the full spectrum of contemporary creative practice, this degree provides a broad and ambitious foundation.
