People love stories. Stories help us make sense of the world around us. Screen production is a powerful way to tell stories, share ideas and express creativity. It uses visuals, sound, performance and story to create content for film, TV, online platforms and other media. Screen production stories can reach and influence a global audience. If you love storytelling and media, study screen production. It opens doors to a rewarding career in a fast-paced, ever-changing industry.
Understand how media influences society and culture. Screen production, through films and documentaries, is a powerful tool. It raises awareness, sparks conversations and advocates for change. In the Bachelor of Creative Arts majoring in Screen Production cultivate your creativity as you create short films. Working solo, or in productions teams, you’ll plan and carry out every stage of screen production. Examine masterpieces from the past to pinpoint what made them so great for their time.

Direct narrative fiction for film and television. Deepen your understanding of genre. Nurture your storytelling ability to get the message through with nuance and artistry. Test the boundaries of non-narrative short films. Learn how to pitch for a professional production and apply your skills in an industry placement.
