Our BA (Hons) Television & Media Production course will mould you into a versatile player in the media industry, with a wealth of skills, confidence and adaptability that will help you achieve career success. Working across radio, television and online studio production in our extensive facilities at UCA Farnham, you’ll develop the advanced production techniques needed to produce informed pieces for journalistic, documentary and fiction purposes. You’ll develop skills in writing and visual storytelling, and work on a number of live briefs, giving you the chance to experience a realistic simulation of a working studio atmosphere. As well as discovering how to disseminate your content across multiple platforms, you’ll also learn how to identify a great story, develop your interviewing techniques and become versatile in writing for different audiences.

Year 1 is taught in conjunction with Journalism and Media Production students. You’ll be introduced to research techniques and how to create a factual story using sound and moving images that emotionally and visually engage the audience. You’ll also find out how to record and edit a radio package suitable for broadcast or podcasting and photography to accompany it. You will research, write and make an individual short moving image project of your choosing that tells a compelling story as a work of fiction or a factual piece. You’ll also learn to develop your own online presence, this platform becoming the home of your content that you produce and the blogs that you write. You will be introduced to the history and development of the media in order to develop your critical and analytical skills. In Year 2, you’ll have the opportunity to work in the multi-camera television studio to remake a scene from a TV soap or comedy sitcom which will be filmed, recorded and edited live. You’ll also work in groups to make a fiction or drama documentary production on location. Additionally, you will elect to either develop your writing skills, or choose to specialise in a particular area of production as a director, producer, camera operator or editor. Your practical work will continue to be underpinned by the development of your theoretical knowledge and you’ll look at the cultural and social theories that inform debates around the media today. In Year 3, you’ll have the opportunity to produce a substantial body of practical work. You’ll research and develop a treatment or proposal for a project of your choice – this might be for a feature script, or for a niche internet studio, a documentary or factual idea. You’ll work to realise your project on your own or in a group. Supporting your practical work will be the professional planning unit which helps to prepare you to work as a television or media professional. You’ll also undertake a major piece of research and writing with your dissertation where you can look in depth at an issue or theoretical concern.
