Film lover and maker? Avid reader and writer? Combine your two creative interests with a degree that helps you explore the connection between them.

A hub for film and writing events

Study film with a department that’s consistently rated in the UK top-ten (Complete University Guide). You’ll discover the history and theory of film and production techniques in global cinema.

As well as our student-run cinema on campus, we have a city centre arts venue that shows the latest independent and foreign films on our doorstep. In previous years, final year students have shown their own films here. You’ll also be close to mainstream cinemas in Lancaster and nearby Morecambe, and a vibrant programme of literary events.

From Black Magic 4K cameras and Adobe editing software to sound-proofed editing suites and audio and lighting equipment, these are just some of the tools you have access to. We have everything you need to learn basic DSLR, digital audio and camerawork in our production facilities.

Whenever you need technical support, you can turn to our professional filmmakers and screenwriters from the Lancaster Institute of Contemporary Arts and our skilled technicians.

Unleash your creative voice

Exploring creative writing gives you the chance to study writing and performance from around the world. The Lancaster area provides a fantastic backdrop for your writing and filmmaking, from the historic city to our spectacular coastline, with ancient woodlands and soaring mountains within easy reach. The nearby Lake District has inspired writers and poets over the years.

The right team is key to your success. Lancaster was one of the very first universities to teach creative writing. Today we continue to lead in the discipline with our celebrated novelists, poets and playwrights. Our experts can help you explore traditional forms such as the short story, the novel, poetry, or theatre, as well as digital media.
