On this Masters you'll learn the fundamental technical skills necessary to begin a career in screen sound, both as a location sound recordist and post-production sound designer. But equally importantly, you will gain an understanding of how a film’s narrative relies on the precise partnership between image and sound.
- Underpinning the ethos of the fiction-focused MA Filmmaking programme, is a production process modelled on established industry practices, processes and workflows. Within this MA programme you'll work collaboratively with students across different pathways on a number of film projects and exercises, culminating in a graduation film in the summer term.
- In your craft area of Sound, you will expand your existing knowledge of sound. Through recording and design, you'll investigate what it means to listen with awareness and to translate that experience to your audience. You'll study how sound is created, captured and manipulated.
- The Sound curriculum focuses on the structure of the soundtrack, deconstructing it from its beginnings in pre-production to the final mix, experimenting with the ways in which different components (dialogue, atmospheres, sound effects, music) allow an audience to engage with a film's story.
- Through iterative exercises, group reviews and regular feedback, you will explore the inclusion of narrative-based audio techniques that harness sound design as a form of sonic storytelling within film.
