Film & Television
Here at Minghella Studios, we train ambitious students in film and television, and help them become well-informed and confident screen practitioners.
Studying film and television at ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø means you’ll be based at our purpose-built, £11m facilities that feature a multi-camera film and TV studio, a digital cinema, and dedicated recording studio and mixing suite.
You’ll study the histories, styles and social impact of film and television, and apply these insights and ideas to collaborative screen productions. Your practical work can include directing, projection, sound and lighting, as well as post-production techniques such as editing, colour grading and sound mixing. Plus, Minghella Studios is home to a team of dedicated technicians, supporting your creative journey.
Our Department is also home to a team of leading academics, who specialise in topics such as:
- world cinema
- digital effects
- comedy and performance
- youth television
- environmental cinema
- action cinema
- documentary filmmaking
- scriptwriting
- videographic criticism.
A recent, exciting development in the local creative economy has been the establishment of Shinfield Studios – an 18-stage film studio at the ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø’s Thames Valley Science Park (due to be fully operational in late 2024). Thanks to £600,000 BFI National Lottery funding, we’ve begun a Screen Berkshire ‘Skills Cluster’, forging industry opportunities through partnership with the Studios and local communities.
Our Department proudly subscribes to the industry-leading BAFTA Albert scheme, which supports film-and-television makers in their efforts to work sustainably and limit their environmental impact. By studying with us you'll join one of the UK’s leading Universities in Environment and Sustainability’ Ranked 1st in the world in the People and Planet University Awards 2023/24.
