BA (Hons) Acting for Screen

There are excellent opportunities to explore the practice of acting for screen at different levels of production either through collaboration with others or through self-recording. Facilities at the University range from mid-level equipment suited to social media and digital output through to a full film studio and green screen facility. Working with our filmmaking students can lead to content that uses industry-standard professional production and editing equipment including cameras, lighting and sound kits for location and studio work.

Computer suites house networks of Apple Mac computers featuring regularly updated, industry-standard software for a wide range of creative applications that support all our courses, with equipment consistent with that used in the creative workplace including mainstream video editing facilities. A purpose-built specialist library is open to all students and includes Digital Collections to enhance the learning experience as well as the University archive. Self service facilities are available throughout, supported by a dedicated and experienced team of library staff.

Having acquired advanced performance and communication skills, there are a wide range of career opportunities available to graduates. You could work in the film and television industry as an actor, voice artist or presenter, or in wider areas of the creative industries, such as advertising, marketing, digital communications or public relations.
