Creativity and Management (B.A.) | Movie Production *in accreditation

Bachelor’s degree program

The course combines creative media practice (in this profile: in the field of film) with basic business knowledge. It begins with insights into creative techniques and processes on the one hand and the structures of the so-called creative industry on the other. Creative processes in the field of film (concept development, production and post-production) as well as various business models and fields of application are then introduced. The aim is for students to be able to work in professions (e.g. in film productions) at the end of their studies in which creative and economic perspectives are necessary at the same time. There are many opportunities to integrate practical experience into the course.

The program qualifies students for the professional production of film content. The training combines creative, technical and organizational skills to successfully realize film projects from conception to post-production.
