In order to provide young people who are determined to develop their career in the field of film and TV creative media with an access to acquire related knowledge systematically, Hong Kong Baptist University Academy of Film has started a Professional Programme in Film in 2009. With the introduction of the New Academic Structure for Senior Secondary Education and Higher Education, the Academy revised the curriculum of the programme in 2012, and the duration of the programme has been shortened to 2 years. The programme, which is offered on a full-time basis, consists of the following Higher Diploma programmes:

 
1. Acting for Film and Television
2. Post-production
3. Film Production Techniques
4. Cinematic Arts
 
The Professional Programme in Film aims at ¡§Whole-Person Education¡¨ through professional practice. It emphasizes professional training in film production with nourishment in creativity, aesthetics, and cultural literacy. This is reflected in the curriculum in general, and in the Year I study in particular.
