How bachelor's film production programs are classified

  • Dedicated degree: The degree itself is in this field.
  • Named concentration: An officially named concentration, specialization or track inside the degree.
  • Broader film degree: A broader film degree whose official curriculum substantially covers this field.

Production programs usually ask for a creative portfolio: a short film or reel, sometimes with a written statement or a visual project. Requirements differ by school and by pathway.
