BA (Hons) Visual Effects (VFX) for Film and Television

Underpinned by training in traditional artistic techniques such as drawing, colour theory, perspective, photography and composition, our VFX students learn what it takes to create their own feature film quality visual effects and ready them for stepping into the industry.
​
From dramatic depictions of impossible worlds to subtle enhancements of everyday reality, blending art and technology calls for practitioners who are technically skilled with an acute aesthetic awareness. We believe it is essential these skills are developed in an integrated filmmaking environment.
