In the last few months I find myself increasingly engaged in discussions about film school pedagogy and, more specifically, the dearth of literature devote to this topic.<\/p>\n

From what I can tell there are three published works about Film Schools and how they structure their education.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Heidi Philipsen of The University of Southern Denmark published in 2005 her PhD thesis “Dansk films nye b\u00f8lge” (The New Wave of Danish Film) about the pedagogical principles at the Danish Film School.<\/li>\n
  2. Canadian filmmaker Paul Lee published in 2001 his PhD thesis “The FIlmmaker as Artist-Educator” submittet to The Ontario Institute for Studies in Education.<\/li>\n
  3. In 1990 American Sociologist Lisa Henderson submitted her PhD thesis to the University of Pennsylvania entitled “Cinematic competence and directorial persona”, a study of an unnamed Masters-level filmmaking programme in New York City.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The three works are quite different, although the Henderson and Philipsen works are both field studies of established film school programmes.<\/p>\n

    What I find interesting is how little bearing these works have on my own experiences working at Film Schools before I came to Norway. As a result, through the discussions I have it becomes apparent to me that I should mine my own experience in order to write a contribution to this area.<\/p>\n

    The three film schools I have worked at – Vancouver Film School, the Canadian Film Centre and The Norwegian Film School – are wildly different, and an attempt to integrate what I have learned form the three will at very least be interesting to me. With any luck it will be interesting to others as well…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
