About this course

Film, TV, Radio and Media Production is a discipline that prepares students to create content across the full range of contemporary media platforms, combining creative ambition with technical fluency and professional awareness. It covers the full production process, from developing ideas and writing scripts to directing, shooting, editing and distributing finished work. Understanding how different platforms, whether cinema, broadcast television, radio or digital media, shape the kind of content they carry is central to becoming an effective and adaptable media practitioner.

At Liverpool Hope University this three-year full-time degree is taught in a city with a strong and distinctive heritage in film and television production. You will develop creative and technical skills across the range of media forms covered by the programme, learning to work with professional-standard equipment and workflows while also building your understanding of the industries you are preparing to enter. The course includes a sandwich year, a year abroad and a work placement, giving you substantial opportunity to gain real professional experience and to develop your portfolio and industry contacts alongside your academic studies.

Liverpool's ongoing significance as a creative production centre provides a valuable context for your studies.
