Entry requirements

For international students

A minimum 2:2 UK undergraduate degree (or international equivalent) usually, but not necessarily, in a relevant subject area. Applicants are required to submit a portfolio of relevant work. Portfolio material usually consists of a showreel or a selection of your best work in the media and formats in which you have previously worked. Depending on the extent to which you have specialised, this could include examples of film, animation, 3D modelling, VFX, motion graphics, illustration, creative photography, scriptwriting, digital artworks, painting, sculpture, set design, live theatre work, installation, or indeed any other creative work which you feel demonstrates relevant skills and creativities. You are also required to include a brief description of the type of project you would like to undertake on the MA. This helps us to understand your interests and likely requirements - it will not commit you to a particular project at this stage.

*There may be different IELTS requirements depending on your chosen course.
