What will I learn?

This programme provides professional training in composition for screen media. Taught by staff and guest composers from the professional world, you will develop a strong technological foundation in the subject, along with specialist understanding and creative experience in television, film and game scoring, and practical insight into today’s media industry. The MA is taught within our high-specification composition and recording studios, which have full-time technical support. You will make the most of the collaborative opportunities we set up, within and beyond the University, for projects in film, animation, documentary, games and more. You will also be actively encouraged to develop your own opportunities and networks. In the first term, you will study units introducing you to working and recording in studios, and the core skills of film scoring. You will also take one elective unit. In the second term, the programme moves on to media composition practice including production music, TV and documentary, and to music for games and other non-linear forms. This work feeds into original collaborations that you may choose to include in your final portfolio. The vibrant musical life of the Department of Music provides opportunities for student and professional performance, and we are located at the heart of one of the UK's leading cities for broadcast, commercial and creative screen media.
