The course is a 5-module, 3-term 180-credit MA, taught over one year, and addresses all the core competences required of a professional film producer in the industry (creative development, project management and delivery, business affairs and business skills). It is explicitly industry-facing and will deploy a significant number of leading producers as visiting contributors to its faculty. At the same time, it immerses aspiring film producers in the creative hothouse of student directors, screenwriters, and cinematographers at the LFS and its two filmmaking studio buildings in Covent Garden.
