Film and Screen Production

Film and screen production is a discipline that develops the practical, creative, and critical skills needed to make moving image work across the full range of screen formats, from short films and features to documentary, television, and digital content. It is a field in which creative vision and technical competence must work together, where the ability to conceive original ideas matters as much as the ability to realise them through the camera, in the edit, and in sound. Studying film production at degree level means developing both as a practitioner and as a thinker about film, understanding the history and theory of the medium alongside the craft of making it.

At Regent's University London, this three-year full-time degree includes a year abroad, giving you the opportunity to engage with different filmmaking traditions, international co-production environments, and screen cultures beyond the UK. Located in London, the programme benefits from proximity to a major global film and television production hub, with access to industry connections and professional networks that can be genuinely formative. You will develop skills across the key roles and stages of production, including directing, cinematography, editing, screenwriting, and sound, and build a portfolio of completed film and screen work that demonstrates your creative and technical abilities.

You will also engage with film history, critical theory, and the industrial and business contexts within which screen production takes place.

Graduates of film and screen production programmes work as directors, producers, cinematographers, editors, screenwriters, and production managers across film, television, online video, advertising, and the games industry. London's position as a production hub is an asset for graduates who remain in the city after graduation. Some graduates go on to postgraduate study in film, documentary, screenwriting, or producing, while others develop their careers through short film production, festival circuits, and assistant roles in professional productions.
