Lee Kemp (BA Film with Television Studies, 2007) decided to take his career in a different direction by going back to university as a mature student. He now runs his own digital film production company.

In the academic year 2022-23, Film and Television Studies/the School of Creative Arts, Performance and Visual Culture were delighted to host Duncan Whitley as our Filmmaker in ResidenceLink opens in a new window. During his residency, Duncan worked with academics from around the university, and particularly the Borders, Race, Ethnicity and Migration Network and community partners Inini. His work was supported by the IAS, the Connecting Cultures GRP, 91福利 Institute of Engagement, as well as the SCAPVC. To celebrate the end of Duncan鈥檚 residency we are organising a screening of Duncan鈥檚 recent and developing work (including the work that has come out of this residency), along with a Q&A with Duncan and some time to reflect on the place of artists in residence in the university.

The event takes place in the Faculty of Arts Building鈥檚 cinema (FAB 0/21) on the 91福利 central campus on Thursday 30th November from 6-8.30pm, including a drinks reception in the Agora in the FAB.
