    TOM WILLIAMS, C.A.S. Production Sound Mixer Member, IATSE 695, 481 Tom Williams started his career by attending the Berklee College of Music as a Production Engineering Major and working in studios around Boston with elements as diverse as rock bands to orchestras. From studio work, Tom moved into documentaries, which took him around the world shooting for the BBC, NOVA, American Experience and Discovery. The doc world led to narrative work and then into the feature world, where he has worked on many high profile projects. The years spent on documentaries left Tom with the ability to think creatively on the fly, which is always helpful on set. That ability, as well as state of the art equipment, a collaborative attitude and positive personality make Tom easy to work with. He loves what he does and strives to be “invisible” while working, always looking ahead and thinking around potential problems before they can arise. Based just outside of Boston, Tom is available to work anywhere and carries both a US and EU passport.

  • Using Film to Teach Psychology: a Resource of Film Study Guides
    USING FILM TO TEACH PSYCHOLOGY: A RESOURCE OF FILM STUDY GUIDES Elizabeth M. Nelson, Christian Brothers University (2002 Instructional Resource Award Recipient) Overview This 106-page resource offers instructors tools for using films to enhance their instruction. Student evaluations consistently indicate that films help them learn the topics, provide an alternative to traditional lectures, and give them a different point of view. However, students also say they do not like to view films if they do not understand the relevancy of the film to the course material. This resource gives teachers of psychology additional tools for using film, such as tested study guides, sample syllabi, student papers, references, and Internet resources. The film study guides contained in this resource have been used in a variety of psychology classes, and may be applicable to a variety of other courses.
