    ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This research has been a lengthy and complex process. We have always stated publicly that this work was for the dance field and it has been carried out in collaboration with the field. We have had support from so many people throughout the process and without this we could not have completed the work. Firstly, we would like to thank Janet Archer, Theresa Beattie, Ellie Hartwell and Tania Wilmer in the dance strategy department of Arts Council England. Without their support this work would not have been possible. Tania Wilmer carried out many of the interviews for the illustrations that pepper the report and we are immensely grateful to her for her rigour and hard work. We are also grateful to those who agreed to be interviewed and gave so generously of their time. There were many Arts Council staff who sourced and contributed data but Jonathan Treadway, Amanda Rigali, Delia Barker and Rebecca Dawson deserve special mention. Regional dance officers provided valuable local data and information and their input through the Dance Practice Group meetings was always valuable. Terry Adams and Claire Cowles (the ‘Survey Monkey’ queen) provided invaluable research backup to us throughout the process and their rigour is evident in the survey data as well as in the analysis of the Arts Council England data. The Steering Group (listed in Appendix One) supported the process, guided us wisely and challenged us when necessary. Their support for the consultation events was also greatly valued. The strategic agencies provided ongoing access to data, Foundation for Community Dance (FCD) staff carried out an analysis of jobs advertised and Sean Williams and his team at Council for Dance Education and Training (CDET) carried out research on the private sector for us that has helped to create a better picture of this sector.

  • 2016 RISJ Paper Jisun Youm Plus TS Final Tweak
    Reuters Institute Fellowship Paper University of Oxford Past, Present, and Future of Food Programmes in Public Service Television By Jisun Youm Michaelmas, Hilary and Trinity Terms 2015~16 Sponsor: FBC (Foundation for Broadcast and Culture) Acknowledgements All of this would not have been possible without the help from Tim Suter, my academic supervisor. As a former BBC producer and also founding member of Ofcom, his expertise and knowledge on public service broadcaster policies have helped in refining this research. His guidance through British television history and food is what comprises half of what is written. If there is any sense of British humour to be found in this paper, I have to return the honours to Dr. David Levy and Dr. James Painter. The two pillars of Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism did not only introduce the journalistic insights but also the witty observations that helped making this an enjoyable read. If not, it just shows my lack of ability in imitating good British jokes. Financial aid was what actually made this all possible. My utmost gratitude goes to FCB, who made the choice to send me to Oxford and picked up the bills. Also my employer, KBS, kept me on their payroll even though I was not actually working for them for a year. The Sabbatical experience in RISJ has enriched me both as a person and a television producer. I wish the two respectable organizations make full use of this. I would like to thank all the RISJ journalist fellows who have endured my imperfect jokes and homemade Kimchi.
