TENTANG EPISODE INI
This episode features the word ‘LECTURE’.
In episode 2, we talk to Bruce Isaacs. Bruce is Associate Professor in Film Studies at The University of Sydney.
He is interested in a wide range of film studies-related topics: histories of film (with a focus on Hollywood, though abiding interests in various ‘New Waves’ and movements), film aesthetics and style, critical approaches to film production, film and popular culture (including the relationship between film and other pop culture art forms such as television, literature and music).
Currently, Bruce is intrigued by various developments in High Concept Hollywood and its evolution of new aesthetic practices, including digital and 3D cinema.
When we talked to him, he occupied the Role of Associate Dean of Education in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, in which he concerned himself with pedagogical issues in higher education settings and specifically those relevant to the student experience at The University of Sydney.
Bruce is a passionate educator, and you might find that when listening to ‘Film Versus Film’ podcast he co-hosts: https://filmversusfilm.podbean.com/.
