Throughout the residency, you will be introduced to state-of-the-art motion capture technology, industry level sound design equipment and work on the biggest sound stage outside of London.

The course provides a studio equipped with green screen technology and vision mixing capabilities. Alongside this, post-production facilities are available in the form of Adobe Creative Suite. Production facilities include BBC approved HD cameras and professional sound recording equipment.
Assessment is largely project-based, leading to a collaborative project at the end of each year which is graded Pass, Merit, or Distinction.
Some learners may wish to gain the qualification in order to enter a specialist area of employment or to progress to a Level 4 or 5 programme. UAL Extended Diplomas in Creative Media Production will provide access to a greater range of specialist units and therefore broaden and extend your experience.
