Twickenham Studios: Making history happen
The Lincoln Film School, to launch in September, will be steered by an expert advisory board including broadcaster Angela Rippon and Rick Senat, former vice-president of Warner Brothers.
Led by Brian Hall, senior lecturer in film production at the university, and Maria Walker, chief operating officer at Twickenham Studios, it will offer an intensive 20-week practical film making course.
