The three-year undergraduate Production program is designed as a comprehensive overview of the managerial and artistic aspects of global, and particularly Croatian, theater and film. It aims to develop students' knowledge and skills necessary for successful business management in the field of contemporary production, with a focus on practical production tasks (organization) and creative management (production) in film, theater, performing arts, and media production.
During their studies, students will be introduced to methods of analyzing and understanding production skills in key historical and contemporary contexts, as well as global and local achievements in modern production for theater, film, and television. Additionally, they will acquire practical knowledge in these fields, master analytical methodologies for film, TV, and performing arts, gain detailed insight into contemporary production examples, and stay informed about current trends in the broader artistic landscape. Students acquire these skills through theoretical lectures, seminars, and continuous hands-on experience on both student and professional film, television, and theater projects.
To provide students with a comprehensive education in film, television, and theater production, the department's faculty consists of renowned professionals from various artistic, production, and academic fields. The professors in the Production program include directors of successful film and theater projects, managers and executives from private production companies in commercial, film, and television production, theorists and festival organizers, experts in cultural policies and strategies, and lecturers at prestigious international workshops and universities.
Department members include: Vedran Mihletić, Prof. Art., Arsen Anton Ostojić, Prof. Art., Snježana Banović, Prof. Art., Ankica Jurić Tilić, Asst. Prof. Art., Ana Letunić, Asst. Prof. Art., Rea Rajčić, Asst. Prof. Art., Romana Brajša, Asst. Prof. Art.
Upon completing the undergraduate program in Production, students will be able to apply the acquired knowledge and skills in their professional careers, critically and selectively connect learned theories with personal experience, use their knowledge to promote innovation, and critically reflect on the production of individual artistic works in various forms and contexts. They will be capable of working independently within the profession, successfully collaborating within teams, and possessing the knowledge and opportunities to develop an independent producing career.
A significant number of students secure employment in the organizational segment of professional film productions, TV productions and companies, artistic events such as theater and film festivals, theater houses, and other related fields. Many of them have established their own production companies, which are now successfully operating.
