Teaching

I currently teach at Coventry School of Art and Design in Coventry University for the Department of Media and Communication. This includes teaching, supporting research activities and working with students across a range of courses including the Media and Communication Degrees, the Journalism and Media Degree, the Photography Degree and the Media Production Degrees at undergraduate and postgraduate level. Here’s a look at some of the work our students have been involved in over the 2010/11 academic year

and here’s the version with some student and staff voices from my department.

You can also stay updated with the work on our degrees by visiting Media Production on TwitterMedia Production on Facebook or join the Media Production Course Blog

My specialisms include transmedia production, digital culture, open technologies and creative media production including film, video, cinematography, editing, photography, motion graphics, compositing, 3D, mobile content creation, web platform development and a number of  areas in emerging modes of multimedia production. I’m particularly keen on looking at new ‘open’ and ‘collaborative’ modes of digital production emerging in contemporary cultural production.

I recently won a CUSU/Coventry University Teaching award in 2011 for the work that I have been doing with Open Education Media Applications.

I have also undertaken teaching work for Zhejiang University of Media and Communications in China and The University of Ibadan in Nigeria as well as being involved in teaching projects for BBC Blast and a number of schools of in the West Midlands region.
