Long Road Class of 2020

BA Filmmaking, University of Sussex

I chose Long Road because their courses were simply better for me to go into the career I wanted. I enjoyed setting up Cinema Club and the Long Lens in my time there, as well as studying great subjects.

My courses gave me experience that I still come back to now, both in practical and theory sides of my work. I actually thank Long Road for helping me become who I am now by setting me on this path to becoming a better filmmaker.
