Bringing together colleagues engaged in screen production and screen studies across our five universities, and bringing practice-based research into dialogue with theoretical, critical and historical research, the sandpit will focus on three areas:
- Industry-facing research (e.g. management and policy, sustainability, EDI, investment and entrepreneurship).
- ‘Cinematic peripheries’: screen practices that have conventionally been marginalised within the academy or industry (e.g. genres, national /regional cinemas, cutting-edge and experimental filmmakers).
- Beyond film and TV? Screen culture in the expanded field.
Places are fully funded, and will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. To register, please sign up here using this form
Once we have an understanding of who’s going to be there, we will send further details about advance preparation. Don’t worry – we will keep this to a minimum!
If you have any questions, please contact the organisers:
