Academics

Film at Mason encompasses cinematic storytelling in all its forms. Television. Mobile and web series. The interactive storytelling of transmedia. You'll tell the stories that go beyond the screen. 

Multidisciplinary Film Program

As a student here, you'll get more than the fundamentals. Our program will push you to become a savvy, skilled film professional, ready to share the stories that only you can tell.

You'll select a concentration, such as directing, but you'll still work in screenwriting, producing, and directing. 

Our courses are intensive and industry-focused. After studying here, you'll be able to apply your skills across a variety of industry platforms. 

Directing students learn producing skills on the set of the Mason Film Lab. Students learn all aspects of filmmaking during their time in the program.
