Stewart MacGregor, RTS award winner
From Sarah Barrow, Head of School:
We have received some great news from Stewart MacGregor, BA Media Production graduate of 2010, member of the team that made ‘Northmen‘ and ‘Greasepaint‘ (Regional RTS winner last year).
After attending the cinematography admissions workshop at the National Film and Television School last week he has just been informed that he’s been accepted on to MA in Cinematography. This is fantastic news for him and for Lincoln School of Media as further evidence of the high calibre of our students and our provision.
Here’s a new film festival with a difference.
“A hub for comedy and film making talent. A place where film festival meets live stand up and the latest new comedy TV series might be discovered.
