Content
This programme will introduce you to the wide variety of writing about film which takes place in different contexts ranging from the extended essay in specialist magazines to film reviewing and promotion pieces. You will develop your own skills in writing about film and will also be encouraged to study and participate in film culture through involvement in activities organised on a local, national and/or international level.
The programme benefits from Glasgow's reputation as a media city and there is a strong emphasis on input from practitioners, but there is also an emphasis on theoretical understandings of cinema and the role of writing. Choice of optional courses is constrained by their availability in any year but will include theoretical courses on cinema, film and culture as well as more practical core courses. The following options have either been offered recently or are being designed for this programme:
* Screen bodies
* Screen animation
* History of critical writing on film and television
* Music and the moving image
* Screen adaptations
* Aspects of European cinema.
The faculty offers a wide variety of options in literature, film, history and culture and the programme allows you to choose up to one option from these as part of your programme.
