MA Music for Film, Media and Games

BIMM University

The MA Music for Film, Media and Games develops the craft and workflow of screen composition and sound design for film, television, games and digital platforms.

Designed with input from working professionals, it combines studio practice with critical reflection so you can deliver to brief, collaborate effectively and meet industry expectations.

You will compose narrative-led music, design sound, and build skills in synchronisation, licensing and interactive audio for games. The course also examines current tools and the practical use of AI where it adds value to modern pipelines.

You will have access to specialist facilities and cross-disciplinary projects in partnership with MetFilm School and MetStudios, gaining experience that reflects real production environments. Industry mentoring and live briefs support the development of a professional network and a portfolio that shows range and reliability.

The course suits early-career composers and sound designers, music graduates seeking to specialise, and practitioners upskilling for screen work. By graduation, you will have a coherent body of work and the tools to pursue roles in film scoring, game audio and media composition.

The course supports composers, producers and sound designers looking to specialise or transition into screen work. You’ll graduate equipped with the creative, technical and entrepreneurial skills needed to navigate freelance practice and contribute confidently to the global screen industries.
