Documentary Direction

Curriculum

Year One is built around a series of practical exercises increasing in length and complexity. Informed and inspired by relevant traditions, each exercise isolates and focuses on the particular techniques and content of a specific documentary genre. Students collaborate in various combinations with editors, cinematographers, sound designers and composers and also work alone using digital video and film equipment.

Year Two includes two projects: a graduation film in which students synthesise what they have discovered in the first year and use it to challenge conventional approaches to documentary making; the other in which they prepare at least one project to take into the professional arena.

The final stage consists of visits to film festivals, screenings of work to broadcasters, independent producers and other relevant institutions, together with seminars and workshops dealing with the commissioning process, ethical practices, legal requirements, festival potential and national and international finance.
