Course summary
If you want a career composing for the orchestra, this course will give you the technical and creative skills to turn that dream into a reality. MA Orchestration for Film, Games and Television takes you from first sketch through to sampled mock-up, then onto your final goal - recording your music with a live orchestra.
The career you deserve
Students on this course go on to work as film, television and games composers, orchestrators, copyists, and composers assistants. If you are already a professional composer, this course opens up a wider range of work involving live orchestra and professional grade sampled mock-ups.
