About the Course

Throughout the degree, you will explore theory and practice combining traditional and digital forms required by industry. You will gain an understanding in all stages of the professional production cycle from conceptualisation and script writing, through to production and post-production. You will analyse film and media from around the globe to gain insight into different creative contexts, forms and practices. You will develop professional knowledge in screenwriting, cinematic design, and the production of documentary, experimental and narrative film and television, and VFX, while understanding different media platforms and the end-user experience. You can specialise in Film and Television production or VFX. In the Film and Television production specialisation, you will complete a series of industry, production and screen theory courses, and will have the opportunity to apply for the UniSA and WeMat Film Concept Lab. In the VFX specialisation, you will study the third year of the degree at Rising Sun Pictures (RSP), working alongside world-class visual effects artists who have created hundreds of sequences for motion pictures including Ford v Ferrari, Captain Marvel and Mortal Kombat. You will engage with industry leaders across all disciplines, work on real-world projects and use the latest production software and technologies, graduating career-ready with your own portfolio of production work, showcasing your practical skills and creativity across a variety of media forms. You'll work autonomously and collaboratively throughout the degree - just like in industry across a range of different roles, preparing you for a move into national and international industries when you graduate.
