Links with External Organisations, Industrial Partners The MA Filmmaking Programme design incorporates the latest industry developments and debates in line with the broader discussion about the sustainability of the UK film industry. Creative Skillset, the licensed Sector Skills Council for entertainment media, has identified its current areas of focus to include craft and technical skills, production management, VFX, business support, and digital content. They identify the current need of the industry to “develop writers, producers and directors,” and recognize that the “existing craft, technical and production skills long associated with the film industry remain in demand.” They also recognize that “as the business model and technologies underlying the film industry become more complex, individuals will also need to develop a more sophisticated understanding of how the different sectors and functions of the industry inter-relate and of the impact of new technologies.” Met Film School has developed the MA Filmmaking Programme with industry expertise from a variety of sources, including current faculty members who are practising industry professionals, our industry partners and Met Film School’s Advisory Board, which includes the distinguished directors Sir Alan Parker and Stephen Frears. Our programme is poised to offer students an industry relevant education that equips them with the skills and professional practice articulated by leading industry voices. The BFI’s recent paper in support of the Culture, Media and Sport Committee Report on the creative economy (November 2012) cites that “skills are the bedrock of the creative economy and the breadth and depth of the talent base is fundamental to the UK’s ability to compete internationally now and in the future.” The BFI’s new five-year plan, Forever Film, highlights the need for creative entrepreneurship by stating that “successful film businesses are run by people who understand how to reach and build an audience for their work…We need to encourage original entrepreneurs and help to fuse creative, technology and entrepreneurial skills.” Met Film School engages with our industry partners and relationships in a variety of ways. Industry professionals teach on our accredited courses, and we invite distinguished filmmakers to give master classes at the school on a regular basis. Past guests have included David Yates (Harry Potter franchise), Asif Kapadia (Senna), Judy Morris (Happy Feet, Babe-Pig in the City), Chris Morris (Four Lions), and documentary filmmaker Kim Longinotto (Pink Saris). Form B - Programme Specification - Oct 2010 Page 4 of 17 We recently launched a new event series, entitled In Conversation With…, where industry guests speak informally, talk-show style, about their career experiences to an audience of students, staff, and faculty. Our first guests in this series have included Sir Alan Parker, Andy Serkis, Stephen Frears and Lord David Puttnam. In the coming months, planned guests include Tim Bevan, producer and CEO of Working Title Films, Liz Trubridge, Downton Abbey series producer, and film director, Kevin MacDonald. In 2012, Met Film School was voted prestigious membership in CILECT (Centre Internacional de Liaison des Ecoles de Cinéma e de Télévision), the global organization of leading film and television schools, for its exceptional level of educational provision. Founded in 1955, CILECT now comprises over 160 audio-visual educational institutions from sixty countries across every continent. CILECT remains committed to maintaining the highest possible educational standards of audio-visual teaching and learning in its member schools, and strives to be a key factor in the contribution to the major cultural and communication processes around the world. Over 75% of the world’s award winning and highest box-office film and TV creators are graduates of CILECT member schools. Our relationship with CILECT offers us an arena for global engagement and evaluating academic quality and standards, but also includes the opportunity to submit our best student work in the annual CILECT PRIZE student film competition which is voted on by the full organizational membership. We have an ongoing relationship with Creative Skillset, having established the Met Film School Skillset Writer’s Training Scheme in 2008, which supported ten emerging writers to develop a first draft of a feature film script whilst supporting their creative and professional development through an intensive training programme. In developing the MA Filmmaking programme we have sought information from the BFI and Creative Skillset, and would be keen to approach these organizations to explore potential collaborative opportunities or professional accreditation as we continue to develop the MA programme. The Programme Leadership and Teaching Team is comprised of industry practitioners an educators with vast, award-winning experience across the disciplines of directing, screenwriting, producing, editing, post production, visual effects and animation, distribution, marketing and sales. Members of the teaching team also hold individual membership in a variety

  • Goodbye to Film School: Please Close the Door on Your Way Out
    7 Goodbye to Film School: Please Close the Door on Your Way Out T o b y M i l l e r am not an expert on film schools, though I used to work in one. Nor have I I undertaken an exhaustive analysis of the six hundred such entities that sup- posedly exist across the United States. 1 But here I am, writing about that sym- bolic behemoth of the film school, the United States. Three film schools stand out among the putative six hundred: the University of Southern California (USC—a private university in Los Angeles), the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA—part of the state’s é lite ten-campus public sys- tem), and New York University (NYU—also private, and where I taught for over a decade). The Hollywood Reporter ’s list of the top 25 film schools has those three in the top five, along with the Beijing Film Academy and the American Film Institute.2 I am particularly interested in these three universities because they are Research-One schools and hence produce ruling-class hegemons and scholarly researchers as well as factory fodder / creatives for world cinema. And their film academies started early—USC in 1929, UCLA in 1947, and NYU in 1965. I’ve drawn on experience, anecdotal repute, and political-economic-environmental analysis to investigate the culture of these film schools, their employment impact, their cost, and their future. Here’s my headline: film schools shouldn’t exist. They should be schools of media and cultural studies, dedicated to displacing both the residual humani- ties (textual analysis and history) and the emergent humanities (business stud- ies).

  • Banlieue Films Festival (BFF): Growing Cinephilia and Filmmaking in Senegal
    Banlieue Films Festival (BFF): Growing cinephilia and filmmaking in Senegal Estrella Sendra SOAS, University of London and Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton [email protected] http://orcid.org/0000-0001-8344-2928 ABSTRACT This article examines small film festivals in the socio-cultural context of Senegal. Through the case study of the Banlieue Films Festival (BFF) in Dakar, founded in 2013 by Abdel Aziz Boye, I analyse the crucial role of festivals in strengthening the film industry, fostering cinephilia and encouraging the practical application of cultural policies. I suggest that contemporary film production, particularly, in the past five years (2015-2020) has been significantly shaped by grassroots initiatives that have eventually been transformed into structures. I also explore the role of “rooted cosmopolitans”, borrowing Kwame Appiah’s term in relation to the figure of Abdel Aziz Boye, who founded Cine UCAD at the Universite Cheikh Anta Diop, in Dakar, Cine Banlieue, and, upon returning to Senegal from France, the BFF. I discuss BFF’s various forms of legacy, concluding that it has been an active agent in forging a new cinephilia and inspiring a wave of young filmmakers in Senegal. KEYWORDS Banlieue Films Festival; Senegalese filmmaking; cinephilia; “rooted cosmopolitan”; film training; ethnography. Introduction Senegal enjoys an emblematic position in the history of African cinema. Following the increasing independence of African countries from French colonialism, Senegal became the home of pioneering filmmakers who would soon acquire international recognition, such as Ousmane Sembe ne (1923- 2007), Safi Faye (n. 1943), and Djibril Diop Mambe ty (1945-1998). These filmmakers sought to decolonise minds through the medium of film, and in doing so, to create a cinema from, by and for African people.

  • INTERVIEW: JOKO ANWAR for This Edition of IMAJI, We Conducted a Deep Interview with Joko Anwar, Had a Peek at His Childhood
    INTERVIEW: JOKO ANWAR For this edition of IMAJI, we conducted a deep interview with Joko Anwar, had a peek at his childhood and reviewed his creative processes in filmmaking. Joko Anwar is a household name in Indonesia, well-known to the public as one of the country’s celebrated film directors. His movies include Janji Joni (2005), Modus Anomali (2012), Pintu Terlarang (2009), and Perempuan Tanah Jahanam (2019). (Source: www.instagram.com/jokoanwar ) What happened in your youth that made you to want to be a filmmaker? I was born and raised in an environment not conducive for a kid to learn and grow. All my life lessons I got from watching films. I became very familiar with movie theaters from since I was 5 and went to watch movies by myself from since I was 7. When I came to know that films had somebody who made them, at around 10, that was when I decided I wanted to be a filmmaker. Today, people can learn to make films by watching audiovisual products on YouTube. What are the fundamental requirements to be a filmmaker in your view? A movie provides a rewarding viewing experience if it successfully makes the audience want to willingly enter the universe constructed by the filmmaker and follow each character’s journey. I am convinced only a filmmaker with a rich life perspective can do this. A filmmaker does not have to be wise nor know the answer to all life’s questions, but rather understands that people learn from peeking into somebody else’s life.
