About Film with Practice, MA - at University of Kent

The Department of Film and Media Studies at the University of Kent is known for its excellence in research and teaching. Arts at Kent (including Film) was the only submission in the UK to achieve 100% 'world leading' assessments for both its impact and research environment in the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021

One of the largest European centres for the study of film, Kent has an established reputation going back more than four decades. Approaching film as a dynamic part of our cultural experience, we encourage thinking about film as it emerges at the intersections of art, document and entertainment. Through theory and practice, individual research, student-led seminars and visiting speakers, we promote an environment in which postgraduate students are able to engage with the continuing vibrancy of cinema.

The Department maintains a range of cameras, lighting equipment, production studios and postproduction suites for students to use to complete their filmmaking assessments.

In 2014, the University opened a 62-seat cinema named after the pioneering female film director Ida Lupino, which students can enjoy as part of their experience during their studies. The Lupino has state-of-the-art digital projection and sound, and has been created to provide an intimate atmosphere for film viewing.
