Overview
The Dissertation by Practice consists of a written dissertation (5,000-10,000 words) and a practical component. The expectation is that the practical component will consist of a piece of audiovisual practice (15-30 minutes), or an applied film studies project, the scope of which must be discussed with the supervisor.
