BA (Honours) in Film and Media in Kingston Canada | Queen's University

The Department specializes in exploring the history, theory, and analysis of film, television, and digital media, while also providing hands-on training in filmmaking, video production, and digital content creation. Our program investigates cinema and television while tackling broader themes like power dynamics, ideology, communication, artistic expression, marketing, consumer culture, economic factors, and audience engagement. We explore connections between film/TV and other art forms—literature, visual arts, music, architecture—while analyzing how cultural institutions shape media.

While Film and Media Studies primarily falls under the Arts (rather than Fine Arts), media production forms a core component of our program, serving as a vital tool for developing cultural understanding and fluency in visual storytelling, audio techniques, and film/video technology. Our production courses blend artistic practice with rigorous study of film history and theory, all while maintaining a sharp focus on cultural contexts. This comprehensive approach equips students with diverse skills for professional paths including, but not limited to, careers in film and television production.
