Tom Ridgewell, AKA Tom Ska, has told us about this event planned for April 28th on campus. Imagine:
“Hundreds of happy-go-lucky potential students walking around the university of Lincoln all day, filming every second of it and distributing it to thousands more potential students each.”
The organising team could do with more help, particularly from Lincoln-based people.

Script editor Merle Nygate gave a guest lecture on 20 Feb and mentions LSM script students in her blog
Merle writes:
“Last week I had the pleasure of guest lecturing at Lincoln University. I was talking to second and a few third year students about TV: the industry and craft…….If I’m among a sparky bunch of students, as was the case in Lincoln, there’s an almost palpable buzz around them. And when I go home, I take some of that buzz away with me.”

We are hosting a symposium on Latin American Cinemas Today, at the EMMTEC, Brayford Pool Campus, University of Lincoln, on 24-25 February.
The event is FREE to all Lincoln staff, graduates and PG students. I’d be delighted if LSM graduates were able to join us at any point.

The scheme is coming up again and is open for applications on the 6th February 2012. It’s also a little different this year with three categories to choose from, rather than two, these being: Runner, Production Management Assistant (TV) and Production Management Assistant (Radio). Continue reading
