They will also be involved in the supervision of students as well as undertaking administrative responsibilities in the Department. In addition:

For a teaching and scholarship (T&S) contract: they will exhibit links to professional work in the field of cinematography through commercial outlets and/or disseminate related scholarship through conventional channels.

*Skills, Experience & Qualification needed*

The successful candidate will have detailed knowledge and experience of current industry practice and working in academia as well as have the ambition to make an impact in their field, demonstrate internationally-relevant scholarship through either professional practice or conventional academic research, and inspire students through innovative teaching. They will ideally have demonstrated expertise in cinematography through professional work in film or television and possess strong knowledge of digital production workflows. This should include professional credits in camera or lighting department roles for national or internationally released film or television work and experience in one or more of the following areas:

  * location-based narrative (fiction) production;
  * commercial short form work (e.g., advertisements, music promos);
  * single-camera studio-based production;
  * documentary production;
  * DIT procedures and digital cinema workflows

A PhD in Film and Television Production (ideally with an emphasis in Cinematography) or equivalent professional industry experience is essential. In addition, experience in shooting for Virtual Production and/or visual effects and knowledge of editing systems and techniques is highly desirable.
