In Homemade: Telling Stories from Home with the Tools You Already Have, you’ll spend eight weeks learning to transform everyday technology—like your smartphone or personal camera—into powerful tools for creating compelling documentary stories that celebrate ideas of home, while connecting with a community of fellow storytellers.  

If you’re interested in research and insight, Using Video for Commercial Ethnographic Research offers six sessions on capturing authentic human behaviour, applying video skills to your own equipment, and distilling your work into a five-minute self-shot film—giving you the confidence to carry your ethnographic filmmaking into professional contexts.  

For experienced creatives, curators, and filmmakers, The Role of the Spectator – Advanced Practice is an intensive two-day course exploring the audience’s place in experimental cinema, guiding you in developing curatorial ideas and commissioning packs, and offering opportunities to pitch projects and receive feedback from potential partners.
