<mailto:(kester.demmar /at/ leicester.ac.uk)>
Dr. Kester Demmar is interested in supervising research projects within
journalism, specifically but not exclusively; media and technology,
veracity of news content in a world of social media, on/off screen
representation (ethnicity and gender) within the media and media
content. His interests also include, murder as television news content,
live television news broadcasting, the role of technology within
journalism and police and the media.
*Dr. Ed Vollans**(ev60 /at/ leicester.ac.uk) * <mailto:(ev60 /at/ leicester.ac.uk)>
Dr. Ed Vollans researches the impact of the film trailer as a cultural
object globally. This includes historical studies of the trailer,
aesthetics, reception, or industrial creative or regulatory contexts.
Extending this, work may consider the promotional trailer across
geographic and regulatory territories, and the entertainment industry
generally, including trailers for other entertainment products
(television, videogames, theatre, books, etc.), as well as fan reception
and participatory culture therein.

<mailto:(timothy.neff /at/ leicester.ac.uk)>
Dr. Timothy Neff looks forward to supervising projects on journalism,
national media systems, media ownership, and public engagement with
social problems. In particular, he has researched differences in news
coverage of climate change and has studied how public media funding
levels and structural protections strengthen democracies. He is
interested in (but not restricted to!) students using social network
analysis, content analysis, topic modeling, and ethnography as their
research methods.
