Our programme aims to expand the students? understanding and knowledge  
of the theory and practice of film, and to cultivate their love of  
cinema. It combines the study of film theory, criticism, aesthetics,  
and the exploration of specific themes, movements and national  
cinemas. It engages with various forms of moving image culture ?  
exploring film in relationship to photography and digital media, and  
the connections of art cinema to independent and mainstream cinema.  
Students are taught to think historically, theoretically, and  
analytically about a wide range of images, sound and visual effects.
Students wishing to try their hand at documentary filmmaking or sound  
design will be given the opportunity to do so.
Our programme also aims to introduce students to Scotland?s lively  
film culture, offering them the opportunity to create professional  
networks within their field. Film Studies in Edinburgh benefits  
greatly from its location: the capital of Scotland, Edinburgh is one  
of the most beautiful and friendly cities of Europe. Thanks to its  
vibrant cultural life and the job opportunities it offers Edinburgh is  
a wonderful place for Film studies students!
