The Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Film and Media Arts is a professional degree program with a focus on hands-on production of documentary, narrative and experimental films using state-of-the-art motion picture cameras and post-production facilities. The robust curriculum includes a broad array of courses in production and post-production, as well as cinema studies, art history, screenwriting and more, designed to prepare students for roles as directors, producers, editors, special effects artists, sound designers, screenwriters and/or independent filmmakers. Elective offerings allow students the flexibility to explore coursework in their area of interest. Students create a short format thesis film as a capstone experience. A digital copy of the approved project must be submitted to the UT library's institutional repository.


Students have many opportunities both inside and outside the classroom to gain hands-on experience and real-world knowledge of the industry. Students work on film projects locally and around the country and participate in internships at small production companies and large movie studios alike. The program also brings in leading industry professionals to give students an insider's view of the business.


Students have access to state-of-the-art cameras, production and post-production facilities, and industry-standard editing software. Facilities also include two surround-sound screening rooms, a black box studio for three-camera TV production, a TV control room, an audio edit suite and foley room, video and film production labs, 3D printing facilities, and a digital arts and 3D animation lab. The BFA in Film and Media Arts is accredited by the National Association of Schools of Art and Design (NASAD).
