Production Management for Film and Television - PgDip at National Film and Television School on FindAMasters.com

About the course

This practical diploma course is designed to give budding production managers a head start to launch a career in film or TV production.

What does it take to be a Production Manager? Someone who can multi-task, be dynamic, communicate well and stay calm under pressure; is creative with budgets but keeps an eye on the bottom line; who knows enough about health and safety to protect the cast and crew but not detract from getting the right shot; who knows about the best locations at the best price – and who knows production from start to finish. Our graduates are extremely sought after to fill exciting positions from entry level to senior production positions.

We believe the best way to prepare for a career in production is to learn the essential skills and put them straight into practice,

Scholarships

Sargent-Disc Scholarships

Sargent-Disc is delighted to sponsor, for the first time, two scholarships for students taking the Production Management for Film Diploma course at the National Film and Television School (NFTS).

We catch up with Tom While, a recipient of the Scholarship, as he updates us on his experiences so far:

I am one of the grateful recipients of the Sargent-Disc Scholarship to study the Post-Graduate Diploma in Production Management for Film at the NFTS. I began the course in September last year and it has been an intense few months. The school's post-graduate programs are just like having a full time job in a working film studio and the challenges and levels of expectation I face are high but the program is hugely rewarding.

After only three weeks on the course I was tasked to work as Production Co-ordinator on a short film produced by the school with a £2500 budget. It certainly felt as if we were thrown in at the deep end but I learnt so much about the production process from this exercise (my Call Sheets and Movement Orders are a lot better now!) and the finished short (named 'North') is, in my opinion, a terrific piece of work. It felt great to be a big part of that collaborative process so early on in my time at the school. The film was followed by a period of workshops and for the first time I was introduced to the Movie Magic programs for scheduling and budgeting. With the expert tutoring of Production Manager Jo Farr, I learnt to create a working schedule and budget for a feature film.

I am really looking forward to the next challenge and building on the experience and knowledge the diploma has given me so far. My ambition is to work in the film industry in production and without the scholarship, it would be so much more difficult for me to attend the school and subsequently achieve that goal.
