Film

We are based a stone’s throw from Ealing Studios in one of the world’s great cities when it comes to filmmaking. Our BA (Hons) English and Film and BA (Hons) Visual Effects courses give you access to professional-grade equipment and facilities.

Our highly practical BA (Hons) Content, Media and Film Production is offered in conjunction with MetFilm School, a specialist training provider for creatives. On this course, your studies will be split between UWL and Ealing Studios – home of MetFilm School – as well as other local production spaces.

If your passion is for composing music for film and television, your studies will be based at the London College of Music, one of the leading music and performing arts institutions in the UK, which has a proud 130-year history and a worldwide reputation for quality education.

The entry requirements for each course are stated on their dedicated pages.

If you don’t have the grades or subjects at level three to start your chosen undergraduate degree, you may have the option of completing a four-year version of the course. These courses begin with a foundation year to prepare you for degree-level work.

Our BA (Hons) English and Film, BA (Hons) Visual Effects and BA (Hons) Content, Media and Film Production are all available with a foundation year – find out more via the course links above.
