Independent Filmmaking is the future of the film industry in the UK. Every year more and more films are financed and made independently, outside of the large studio systems, many of which go on to win major awards at national and international film festivals such as Sundance. Independent filmmakers are known for their capacity to create thought provoking and exciting stories as well as their technical ability, problem solving and communication skills. The UK is a world leader in award winning independent short and feature films and Futureworks is a frontrunner in educating passionate dedicated students in the art of filmmaking. Working with award winning professionals on industry-standard equipment and the latest software, every student has the opportunity to realise their creative potential. This year, the main activities within the programme will take place within a classroom/studio/online setting. This will allow you and the staff to develop a mature and informative relationship concerning your study. Not only is this a supportive and welcoming environment but it mimics the professional arena where you will be expected to organise your working patterns based upon set goals. Circumstances surrounding COVID-19 enabled us to develop a flexible approach to your teaching and learning with the option to deliver aspects of the course both onsite and online. Throughout the pandemic, this has been a successful strategy to control numbers and preserve social distancing in the building, reducing the need for unnecessary travel by both students and staff but it is also very important to develop your ability to operate, collaborate and deliver work online – a vital and forward-looking employment skill recommended by our industry partners in the Futureworks’ Industry Advisory Group. It is important to note that this is not a distance learning / online course. Online activity will be a part of the course in addition to onsite studios and labs as it is an important transferable skill you will need in industry. Upon graduation you will achieve not only a recognised degree qualification, but will also be equipped with a strong showreel and a feature film portfolio making you ready to hit the ground running on an exciting and fulfilling career.
