Master of Fine Arts with a specialization in DIRECTING
is a highly individualized 2 year programme designed for students who have either a Bachelor’s degree in cinema or Fine Arts or who have had professional experience in the film or audio-visual media industry. The Master’s Directing Programme goal is to give the student a thorough understanding of the aesthetic and technical aspects of directing and to develop his ability to express original ideas using this knowledge.
The first year consists of intermediary and advanced courses in the key disciplines of filmmaking -cinematography, directing, editing, screenwriting, production- as well as "hands-on-film" exercises and shorts. Additionally, in the first year, non-credited courses in the fundamentals of filmmaking are offered to MFA students who lack the prerequisites for the more advanced courses.
In the second year the emphasis is on the student’s thesis film as well as specialization. Students have additional required courses in their specialization as well as workshops, and one-to-one tutoring. Students also have the possibility, when available, to work on professional productions, as interns.
The European Master 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.
Between 60 to 120 ECTS credits are required for the MFA degree, depending on the level of integration. These credits include classes, personal study, internships, and compulsory English as a Foreign Language test. The European Master’s Degree is validated by EABHES once the candidate has accumulated all the fundamental credits in the chosen subject.
