Supervision areas
Our School of Humanities has a strong mix of academics with a high degree of professional and personal experience, enabling you to get the most out of your programme. Our staff have expertise in British cinema, film theory, documentary, film and trauma, avant-garde cinema, artist’s film and video, and the art film. We would welcome projects that have a practical element and that engage with practice as research.
At present, MPhil/PhD students in Film are undertaking research on trauma and the documentary image; understanding the link between the writer and the creation of emotional impact through the screenplay form; and the link between film and embodiment.
