Students have been engaged in the production of media content for skills development in Script Writing, Cinematography and Video Editing. They have researched, planned and produced videos for various projects, including exploring narrative themes and TV studio multi-camera productions. Students also undertook productions exploring emerging technologies in live web streaming.
The standard of work has been excellent, with students researching, writing and producing final project work including short film, music video and documentary. Productions have benefitted from students having access to TV studio facilities to enable advanced uses of lighting and cinematography.
The work produced this year shows genuine creativity and imaginative uses of industry standard resources.

DUDLEY COLLEGE ARTSFEST & FILMFEST
OPENING NIGHT 2025
Dudley College of Technology Artsfest and Filmfest 2025 launched on Tuesday, 17th June, with a fantastic open evening attended by hundreds of people from the Black Country, Birmingham and beyond.
The event, which ran from 5pm until 9.30pm was attended by the Mayor of Dudley, Councillor Peter Lee, senior members of staff from Dudley College, students past and present and all staff who teach at our Evolve, Inspired and Dudley Sixth campuses.
Also there on the night was Chief Executive and Principal of Dudley College, Diana Martin, who said:
“Artsfest 25 opened on Tuesday, 17th June and I had the pleasure of showing the Mayor and Mayoress of Dudley around the exhibition. The standard of creative work on display was exceptional across all disciplines – graphics, photography, visual arts, games design, fashion, performance and media.
This year, it was great to bring together the exhibition from our Dudley Sixth learners with the Creative Industries departments. The work of our A-Level artists was equally fabulous. I was incredibly proud of all students and staff who bring Artsfest together.”
During the evening, several students were presented with their Journey of Success awards, which are awarded to learners who have made particularly outstanding progress during their time with us.
After everyone had viewed our students’ fantastic exhibitions, people were welcomed into our purpose-built Evolve Theatre for this year’s Dudley College Filmfest awards.
Media tutor, Sean Dunn, joined curriculum manager, Sian Taylor, in compering the event, which showcased a wide range of superb films in different categories produced by our media and animation students.
