The Film Studies department are happy to announce the addition of Dr. Corey Schultz

Currently, he is the convener of the MA Film programme, and teaches the module “Preparing for the Dissertation.” Next year, he hopes to teach a new module – “Contemporary Chinese Cinema” – which examines the changes that have occurred in the People’s Republic of China from 2000 to the present, by analysing how this period of transition has been reflected, explored, symbolised, and constructed in contemporary Chinese film. The central idea of this module is to use selected films from a variety of genres (such as documentaries, art films, and blockbusters) as an entry point into examining this dynamic period in Chinese and world film history. Dr. Schultz’s addition marks an important extension to the range and depth of the Department and to the Faculty of Humanities as a whole.
