I joined Screen and Film School in 2019, after securing a place in second year, after having begun the first year of the course in Weymouth, Dorset.
I found the transfer very smooth and was excited by the passion and credibility that I saw in the lecturers. The course during my second year was enjoyable and and honestly challenging for me. I found myself delving into my work in new creative ways whilst also feeling welcomed by the social side of the university.
Third year was more challenging as Covid-19 Lockdowns had begun and the practical element of the course had been lost. The lectures had developed a kind of GCSE media studies feel, excluding the masterclasses (which saved 3rd year slightly).
I now don’t work in the film industry, but i do think that the university work relentlessly where they can; up to date emails for 3rd years and post graduates for up coming jobs in the industry were common, working with big names.
