The director has the overall artistic responsibility for a film and audio-visual story. Through a combination of script analysis, mise en scene, working with actors, and developing an understanding of the interplay of image and sound, the director leads the joint creative powers of the film team. Directors also learn the basics of the technical and practical aspects of filmmaking.

The directing programme combines workshops and hands-on sessions with case studies and film and script analysis and adds a number of production exercises that address topics such as idea development, mise en scene, editing, and sound editing. There is major focus on developing artistic leadership and collaborative skills, while at the same time developing a personal voice and style.
