WeZ Podcasts

The students speak quite candidly about dealing with suicide, representation of disability, race, sex in media. Self-censorship, the language around mental illness, social media “joking” to normalise issues, tropes, and much more all the way to life advice from students to students.

This is an episode we are particularly proud of. Thank you all for your honesty and support. We’ve had a blast doing this. We never would have thought we’d get to 50 episodes when we started this! If we can do it, you can! Make art! Get your voice out there. :)

Jacopo and Rob join James and WeZ to discuss wrapping up the Film Degree. Wrapping up third year. The London moves. Competitiveness within the course. “Guinea Pigs” ? NSS over the phone! Overall experience?

Jon, Jack and Adam join James and WeZ to discuss items from the anonymous Padlet. Making “meaningful” films with cultural value. Being heard on set as a Sound OP and getting people to take sound seriously. Doubling up on Grad Projects. And the lads ask James and WeZ some random questions… Revealing that a students Mum hit on James on open day ! :o

James and WeZ discuss your anonymous prompts from the Padlet. This week it’s about settling on things versus your expectations. Getting Performances from actors. Butting those f***** black lines at the top and bottom of your movies and which body part/skill they would swap.
