The Bachelor of Fine Arts with a specialization in CINEMATOGRAPHY
is a 3 year programme in English which provides a broad introduction to the elements of filmmaking with a specialization in Cinematography.
The Cinematography specialization within the BFA Filmmaking curriculum is specifically designed to give students professional preparation for a career as a Cinematographer in film, electronic and digital media. This is accomplished through theoretical courses and practical exercises as well as extensive “hands-on-film” work where students, shooting their classmates’ films, will learn and master the technical and aesthetic principles of Cinematography.
After completing the first year of cross-disciplinary studies covering the fundamentals of filmmaking, the students start to specialize in their second year with cinematography workshops and modules with practical exercises using 35mm, 16mm, and HD as well as other broadcast media formats. These workshops and modules are accompanied by practical “hands-on-film” instruction with the student working as a cameraman on various student productions.
The third and final year is one of intense specialization modules and individual tutoring. However the emphasis is on the student’s participation in school productions, his ability to work as part of a team, and the quality of his contribution to the finished film.
At the end of the three year programme, the student will have had experience in practical problems and assignments concerning cinematography in film, video, and digital media – all leading to career opportunities in the audio-visual and entertainment industry.
The European Bachelor of Fine Arts is a degree-level diploma
which is accredited by EABHES, the European Accreditation Board of Higher Education Schools.
The Bachelor’s degree is recognised in affiliated Universities and Higher Education Schools and gives students a high level of geographical mobility, in terms both of their studies and their professional activities. They are a genuine European passport for the world of work.
A minimum of 180 ECTS credits is required for the BFA degree. These credits include classes, personal study, internships, and compulsory English as a Foreign Language test.
