NFTS Production Management - Worth it?/What's it like? (2 Viewers)

[AnnieTheAvocado]

Hello all!
Just wondering if anyone had studied this MA Production Management for Film and TV (1 YEAR MA) or its previous iterations and could comment on if they enjoyed it/ what they got out of it?

I've applied for it and I like that it seems to give you a lot of practical experience and they promise a substantial amount of credits.

My slight concern is that you're paying to do work essentially, but as someone who needs regimented schedule to get things done I'm willing to pay that price if it comes with quality mentorship and an excellent film network.

NB: I'd prev been accepted into a slightly diff diploma course but decided it's better to do a full on MA to "get more out of" the film school experience.

Any insights greatly appreciated!

Thanks Chris! I think it's a new version of the Production course that it looks like they started last year; part of "Fresh Take".
