Film applicants need more than a passion for movies or filmmaking. Universities seek students who think critically about visual storytelling, explore cultural and historical contexts, and reflect on how film shapes ideas, emotions, and social understanding.
The university primer helps students develop a more critical understanding of film, engage with the latest issues, and stand out as candidates.
University primer: ample version (performing arts)
The university primer offer students a wide selection of mini-lessons and other resources that explore and unpack the latest issues and events related to the course, enabling students to link learning to the real-world, develop a more critical eye, and demonstrate their interest in the subject.
The advice on the final slide of the presentation provides specific advice on how the story will help to deepen their knowledge, introduce them to key thinkers, and relate to wider issues going on in the world. Check back every month for new stories. To access all the UP padlets join us here!
