*UWS Creative Media Academy*

    *Ayr Campus and Film City Glasgow*

    An exciting opportunity has arisen for a *Lecturer in Filmmaking* to
    join our team in the School of Media, Culture and Society (MCS).

    MCS is a large (circa 2500 student FTEs) multidisciplinary school
    where the social sciences and creative and cultural industries meet.
    We offer a supportive and aspirational environment in which staff
    and students work in partnership to create societal and cultural 
change.

    The school of Media, Culture and Society also hosts the Creative
    Media Academy. The UWS Creative Media Academy, one of only 3 in
    Scotland, is a Creative Skillset accredited centre for excellence in
    creative industry teaching and research.


    The Academy offers programmes focused on professional practice,
    dedicated to vocationally relevant education to anticipate the
    skills needs of the creative and cultural industries. Each programme
    pays close attention to fast-developing converging technologies and
    new business models in the creative industries.


    Students learn through modules taught by practitioners reflecting
    current industry 'best practice'. Expertise across a range of
    interconnected disciplines is embedded across our different
    programmes including Television and Radio Broadcast Production,
    Filmmaking and Scriptwriting, Digital Art, Commercial Music and
    Music Technology, Performance, Broadcast Journalism, Computer Games
    Technology and Animation.


    Recent guests to the academy include Oscar and BAFTA winners in
    documentary and fiction and we work with the very best in the
    industry. We are looking for a dynamic, creative and reflective
    individual to join our filmmaking team.

    You will have the skills, knowledge and experience to play a key
    role in achieving in teaching, internationalisation, research and
    commercial activity. You will play a central role in our Screen and
    related disciplines primarily contributing to our popular BA (Hons)
    Filmmaking and Screenwriting and our soon to be offered MA
    Filmmaking.  Candidates should have a strong practitioner profile in
    documentary filmmaking and production.

    You will be responsible for contributing to an excellent student
    experience by planning, developing and delivering an exciting
    curriculum utilising contemporary forms of pedagogy.  You will
    produce and publish excellent research outputs commensurate with the
    stage of your career and demonstrate an ability or potential to
    attract independent research funding.  An internationalised
    experience is central to the UWS student experience and therefore
    you will support initiatives for staff and students to engage in
    international activities.

    You will be a highly motivated individual, passionate about your
    discipline and about contributing to the best possible student
    experience. You will be able to demonstrate a commitment to a
    successful academic career (research, enterprise, and teaching) and
    be comfortable working both autonomously and within and across a
    range of teams.

    A PhD in documentary filmmaking or a related field would be
    desirable. Successful candidates will be encouraged and supported to
    undertake a PhD or PhD by Practice.

    The successful candidate will be excited by the opportunity to work
    in a multi disciplinary environment and will seek to exploit the
    opportunities afforded by this.
