BA Film and Television Production

About this course

Film and television production is a discipline at the intersection of creative storytelling and technical craft, concerned with the full process by which moving image content is conceived, developed, shot, and edited into the finished programmes, films, and online content that audiences consume. It encompasses scriptwriting, direction, cinematography, sound design, editing, and production management, and it asks practitioners to develop both the creative vision to tell compelling stories and the technical skills and collaborative awareness to realise them within real production environments and timescales. At Teesside University this part-time programme develops your skills in teamworking, communication, project management, and negotiation alongside the technical and creative dimensions of film and television production. You will collaborate with fellow students to produce creative projects in response to subject-specific briefs, experiencing the collaborative and deadline-driven realities of professional production. The part-time mode allows you to develop your skills and build your portfolio over an extended period, fitting your studies around other professional or personal commitments. Graduates from film and television production programmes go on to careers across the screen industries, including television production companies, independent film studios, digital media agencies, broadcast organisations, and in-house production teams within large organisations. Roles include producer, director, camera operator, editor, production coordinator, and broadcast journalist. The collaborative and project-based skills developed through this kind of production training are also valued in live events, corporate media, and digital content creation. Many graduates build careers that combine freelance work with employment, developing a portfolio career that reflects the project-based structure of much of the screen industry.
