The Film Studies Programme at York St John University is an exciting pathway which represents the changing nature of the subject area and the links between film and other disciplines.
On the Film Studies programme you will experience and take part in lectures, seminars, workshops, task focused activities, field-trips and excursions and informative engagement with media practitioners and those working in the creative industry. Crucially, this is backed up by three distinct features. These are:
Research informed teaching where experts in their subjects will work with you and develop your knowledge
A schedule of tutorial support where you will gain advice and guidance on how to progress academically
Technology enhanced programme instruction from experts that will help you to learn how to use media as a critical and creative tool
You will be assessed in a variety of ways including essays, portfolios, single and group presentations (for example, voice-over commentaries using iPads and tablets), interactive eportfolios (using platforms such as Word Press), creative visual pieces. All of these will be introduced at Level1 and then developed throughout the degree.
