FAQS
WILL I CREATE A DEMO REEL DURING THE DEGREE?
YES, at APAC you will work on a diverse range of screen projects with our acting, and song & dance students. You will have a variety of footage to edit into a demo reel for potential employers to view.
I DIDN’T DO ANY MEDIA SUBJECTS IN HIGH SCHOOL, WILL I STILL BE ABLE TO DO WELL IN THE DEGREE?
You don’t have to have any existing skills – it can be helpful but they are not essential. It’s your passion to create ideas and tell a story that we are looking for. We teach the course from a beginners level for all aspects of production.
WHY IS THE BSS DEGREE ONLY 2 YEARS NOT 3 YEARS LIKE UNIVERSITIES?
Rather than 2 semesters per year over 3 years, our degrees have 3 trimesters per year over 2 years. Resulting in 6 trimesters overall.
WHAT TYPE OF PROJECTS WILL I BE INVOLVED WITH?
Our film making course allows you to work on drama or comedy scenes, music videos, interviews and even creating a podcast.
HOW CAN I INCREASE MY CHANCES OF FINDING EMPLOYMENT WHEN I GRADUATE?
Building your network with like-minded people and meeting others that work in the screen industry is very important. At APAC we enable you to attend industry events and talks.
IS IT ALL THEORY?
At APAC we balance Academic Rigour with Professional Relevance. The BSS is a ‘practice-led’ degree. This means that, while academic and theoretical components are central to the learning journey to inform and underpin the practical, skills-based classes, the focus is developing performance and technical skills while developing a broader understanding of the cultural and professional context around those performance skills.
