- As a postgraduate researcher in the Department of Film and Creative Writing you will benefit from the expertise of staff in both fields, opening up exciting new opportunities to develop synergies between the two.
- You will work with supervisors and technicians to film and edit an hour-long documentary film as part of your research, accompanied by a 30,000 word written defence. The combination of skills developed will prepare you for prospective careers in the screen industries, academia and related disciplines.
- You may wish to compare this programme to the Film Studies PhD where you will produce an 80,000 word thesis rather than the filming and editing requirement of this course. As practice-based research, the development of a cogent, coherent and ethically sound audio-visual methodology for the Audio-Visual PhD is of paramount importance, so please consider this when preparing a proposal for distribution to potential supervisors prior to application.
