Full Job Description
A key focus of the course is the aesthetic and creative aspects of filmmaking, with consideration being given to both mainstream and experimental modes of film creation, as well as how these traditions are mediated by differing production and postproduction techniques. Theoretical and practice-based considerations of filmmaking techniques, as well as a strong focus on employability, remain central to the course's ethos.
Our course is based in the College of Digital Arts, within the Faculty of Arts, Design and Media (ADM) situated in the Curzon Building in the Eastside area of Birmingham, with easy access to many transport links which connect the Midlands and beyond. The university has industry-standard filmmaking facilities, which have been hired commercially to the likes of Sony, Disney, Channel 4, Birmingham Royal Ballet and Jaguar Land Rover. Birmingham has a rapidly growing film and television industry and the ideal candidate would be able to feed into and exploit this opportunity.
We are seeking to appoint a candidate who is dynamic and visionary, with creative and technical practice, and ideally with previous experience of teaching filmmaking. The post-holder will be expected to understand the film industry's ever-changing landscape and prepare graduates for exciting opportunities within this growing sector.
Candidates should possess a record of experience within the film industry and, ideally, a research profile. They should be conversant with film technology, practice, theory and concepts, which should include experience in at least several of the following areas: directing, cinematography, sound, editing, conceptual problem solving, studio production and research.
They will have the ability to teach across all levels of the course and feed into course development. The successful candidate will ideally possess a teaching qualification and/or HEA Fellowship, though the university can also support applicants in attaining these after starting.
At the heart of our Strategy for 2030 and Beyond, it is our mission to enable our students to transform their lives and to achieve their potential. Through our education and research, and the roles our graduates go on to play in the world, we not only support individuals to transform their lives, but we also play a part in transforming society.
In return we offer a competitive salary, generous pension and annual leave provision.
