There's always a miasma of misinformation emerging from the higher education sector as to which are the "best" courses to take. My advice would always be to ignore the perceived wisdom and look for the most reliable evidence on the ground.

Film and the other creative industries are being transformed by digital technologies.

Most parliamentarians don't have a clue as regards the challenges or the opportunities the games industry faces.

A country that fails to value its teachers, fails to value its future.

The most important thing I think teachers can do for young people is to make them inquiring, is to ensure that they know how to gather information, that they check information and they take their information from a multiplicity of sources.

My belief is that no movie, nothing in life, leaves people neutral. You either leave them up or you leave them down.

At its best, cinema does retain a remarkable ability to speak to people of every age, from every background, and in ways that almost any other art form in popular culture struggles to compete with.
