Specialisations
Film Production
The specialisation aims to develop students’ theoretical and practical skills in audiovisual design and production, with a starting point in the creative aspects. From concept to script and development, students tackle all technical phases of a professional project — from pre-production to directing, from cinematography to editing, post-production, and sound design. Throughout the programme, students deepen their knowledge of the main themes, styles, techniques, and design typologies in the contemporary audiovisual landscape, training young writers, directors, and professionals.
Animation
The creation of characters and worlds, along with experimentation with forms of expression, are the core topics of the programme. Building on the learning of various digital animation techniques, students have the opportunity to enhance their storytelling abilities and their personal vision. The specialisation provides the tools to produce a graduation project using 2D animation, stop-motion, and fundamental 3D animation skills, enabling students to gain a solid awareness of animation methods in both artistic and professional contexts.
