The programme of study provides insight into essential prerequisites for audiovisual media, as well as how technological development induces new expressions and offer arenas for interaction and display.

The master's degree is assessed by both examination and thesis. Therefore, the programme has two main components:

• One joint component comprised of a combination of compulsory and optional theory- and methodology courses. The theoretical components are linked to the fields of film studies. The practical components of the programme rest on and further develop the students' practical experience, and culminate in a final exam production. This component, including Experts in teams, provides a total of 60 credits.

• One master's thesis, which is a written report of a piece of independent scholarly work. This component provides a total of 60 credits. Work with the thesis takes place under the guidance of an academic supervisor.

The master's thesis is bisected, and consists of a minor theoretical piece of work, as well as a practical media production. The intended purpose behind the theoretical part of the thesis is to show that the candidate can work independently within the subject area. The practical production aims to demonstrate the candidate's proficiency in completing a comprehensive film and video production.

Why choose to study the master's programme in Film and Video Production?

It provides candidates with qualifications for teaching theoretical and practical topics within media education as well as for work within those professions in which complex issues need to be examined and disseminated. Successful completion of the degree may also lead to work in research, administration, information and media industries, film- and television production and cultural institutions.
