Programme
«Filmmaking is a chance to live many lifetimes» ― Robert Altman
Creative Producing – this term represents the unique fusion of art and management, creativity and organization. Few roles in the film industry are as demanding and multifaceted as that of a Creative Producer.
Producing an outstanding film requires far more than organization. It demands analytical skills, visionary leadership, and the ability to inspire creative teams. As a Creative Producer, you are a talent scout, a master organizer, and a socially engaged individual. You identify pressing topics, nurture exceptional talent, and skillfully guide film or series projects through all phases of production.
The Master’s program in Creative Producing at ZHdK provides the ideal foundation for a successful career in this dynamic field. You will learn to navigate artistic and production challenges, gain hands-on experience through multiple film projects, and develop the expertise that will make you a key figure in the film industry.
