Medfest

I spoke at Medfest this week – a celebration of the work of Andy Medhurst on the occasion of his retirement from the University of Sussex. It was a lovely event, where many friends, colleagues and students of Andy’s paid tribute to his important contribution to the fields of Film, Media and Cultural studies. In preparation for my talk I made a series of clips taken from films he discusses in three of his articles that had a particular influence on me personally. Later when I got home I tried turning these into a sort of simple ‘video essay’. It’s not a form I’m very experienced in, and really I only did it to work out how to use the technology. But for what it’s worth, here it is.
