Editing and Post Production BA (Hons)
Careers
Editors and post-production
professionals often start work
as edit assistants, assistant
colourists, data wranglers,
trainee visual effects
compositors and machine
room technicians. Individuals
can progress on to roles
such as editors, colourists
or compositors.
The Course
While editing is at the heart of
this course, you’ll also specialise
in at least one other craft: visual
effects, colour grading, or shoot-
and-edit.
These are crafts of extraordinary
power and nuance. Through them
you can inform and enlighten,
and you can change people’s
minds. You can arouse great
emotion, and you can create
immersive fantasy worlds.
You will develop these skills
through workshops, through
making, and through giving
and taking feedback. At the
same time, you will acquire
skills in post technology and
media management which form
the backbone of your craft.
And throughout your learning
journey you will come to see
your practice within the context
of wider social, cultural and
aesthetic formations.

There are three key events in the life of a film: the script, the
shoot, and the edit. Editing is where it all comes together, where
meaning is created through cutting sound and picture. This is
the moment when the story is finally told.

“Confidence must be the biggest
benefit from studying at
Ravensbourne, as well as great
opportunities in the real working
world. What has also grown more
since graduation has been the
passion and ambition that the
course originally gave me.”
