AFTRS – Australia’s national screen arts and broadcast school is introducing a bold new undergraduate Bachelor of Arts (Screen) degree, in 2015. The new Bachelor of Screen Arts is all about preparing creative people to be nimble operators for a platform agnostic world and fuses both deep-scholarly engagement with the art of storytelling, the history of cinema as well a cross-disciplinary hybrid of subjects that span the full spectrum of screen production. The way stories are told is ever-changing, as platforms and technologies evolve and adapt, but the desire to tell a story is innate to the human condition. Two core subjects, ‘Story’ and ‘The History of Film’ underpin the entire degree and are complemented by other subjects and electives, throughout the three-year program providing exciting opportunities to collaborate with other students and to be taught by some of the best screen practitioners, in the best facilities in Australia. Intentionally designed to ‘future-proof’ graduates for a changing and dynamic world, the Bachelor of Screen Arts combines critical thinking, creative engagement as students are immersed in the world of storytelling but not limited by technology, where adaptability, resilience and entrepreneurial skills will equip them for a lifelong creative career. Voted the top #20 film school in the world, by industry bible The Hollywood Reporter (in October 2012) , AFTRS presents unrivalled opportunities for students to network and form life-long professional relationships. Entry is by merit selection. Applications for 2015 will open in September, 2014.
