Bachelor of Film Production

Overview

The Bachelor of Film Production at UC encourages students to foster their interests in filmmaking, expand their creative thinking, explore the craft of audiovisual storytelling and collaborate closely with others. The course promotes students to become thoughtful and ethically minded practitioners, to consider both the stories we tell and, in relation to ecologically sustainable practices, how we choose to tell them by asking the question: “What does it mean to be a filmmaker today?” You will gain knowledge and skills in live action film making, film and story theory and analysis, collaborative practice, and leadership within a complex creative environment. Students apply theoretical knowledge to their practice through the development of film projects from conceptualisation to production, post-production and final delivery by following established digital workflows. The course introduces students to film cameras and lenses, tripods, dollies and jibs, lighting equipment, location sound recording mixers, microphones and booms, studio and set construction facilities, green screen studio, compositing, editing, sound and colour grading software and facilities.
