Learn to analyse films as well as cinema's industrial development, changing production, distribution and exhibition practices and leading theoretical frameworks. You also have the opportunity to undertake a range of activities related directly to future employment across a number of industries, such as film journalism, film marketing, and management of film festivals.

In lectures you gain knowledge and understanding of the subject. In seminars and workshops you participate in discussion, presentations and writing exercises, developing communication and teamwork skills, as well as the ability to think and respond quickly and creatively to questions and ideas. Our modules include weekly screenings, either in our own cinema, The Void, or at Sheffield's leading art cinema, the Showroom, with whom we have a long-standing partnership.
