Guest Lecture - Erik Knudsen

I am very pleased to announce that next Wednesday (7th Dec) afternoon there is a guest lecture from Professor Erik Knusden

You are in college during the morning so I recommend that you stay for the afternoon - Erik was my lecturer at Salford (he's Yoda to my Luke Skywalker) and I can therefore say, with absolute confidence, that you will gain a lot from this session if you attend...

Erik Knudsen is Professor of Film Practice at the University of Salford in Manchester, UK, where he is currently the Head of The School of Media Music and Performance. He regularly conducts guest workshops at international film schools, such as the Escuela Internacional de Cine y Television in Cuba, where he was Head of Editing between 2001 and 2009. He was born in Ghana to a Danish father and Ghanaian mother in 1956. He grew up, and was primarily educated, in Denmark, with a few years of schooling in Britain. After a stint of Law studies at Århus University in Denmark, he then went on to study film production at York University in Toronto, Canada, from where he graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts with Specialist Honours in Film Production in 1983. He returned to Britain in 1984, where he has lived and worked since. He gained his PhD from the University of Salford, 2002
