Are you an aspiring filmmaker? Have you always wondered what it would be like to make a short film rather than just watch one? Maybe you're an amateur filmmaker who'd like to bring some professionalism to your productions? The Certificate in Screen Production gives learners the skills to conceive ideas and develop them into original films and screen media content for multi-platform distribution.
This is a programme taught by filmmakers for people who want to make films. Stemming from the Screen Media Production module of Griffith's innovative BA in Film, TV & Screen Media Production, this fully practical course is based on current industry best-practice in short-form screen media content production and emulates real-world film, TV and screen media industry processes to give learners with the fundamental practical skills to produce short-form audio-visual branded or commercial content for multi-platform distribution. Learners are immersed in the practical skills needed in each phase of screen media production - pre-production, production and post-production – so they can make their own informed, logical and creative decisions at every stage.
