Master of Arts in Producing for Film, Television and New Media
 

The MA in Producing for Film, Television and New Media is a self-funded full-time one-year master’s degree programme. Given the rapid development of mainland China, the greater China region, and Hong Kong film, television and new–media industries, and also given the ever-increasing demand for co-productions and co-arrangements between Hong Kong, the greater China region, and the English-speaking world, there is a high and escalating demand for educated and well-trained professionals, with a high level of language competency in English and Chinese, able to manage areas such as planning, finance, producing, distribution, promotion, public relations, marketing, and theatre management in the fields of film, television and new media. The programme is a high-level professional and educational programme, which aims to educate students for career opportunities as producers and executives within the film, television, and new-media industries and to provide an academic framework for such education.

For graduation, students must complete a minimum of 27 units, consisting of 15 units of core courses and 12 units of elective courses.
