Production Management

The Production Management department focuses on the logistical and operational aspects of producing film and TV. In our course, you will be introduced to scripted and unscripted content, learning key ‘production’ and ‘editorial’ skills. This includes researching, pitching, budgeting, scheduling, casting, sustainable & ethical production and location / on-set management.

The Production Management team is at the core of any film or TV show!

If you excel at organising, enjoy tackling creative challenges and ensuring projects are completed to schedule, this is the pathway for you!
