DIRECT is UWE’s center for Data Imaging Research in Electronic Cinematography and Transmedia. Digital Cinematography has superseded Photo-chemical Cinematography and what happens in Hollywood, the next day happens in European Film and TV, Bollywood and Beijing and then directly in the classroom.

DIRECT has two fundamental raison d’etres: one is to create new knowledge in the subject Area of Digital Cinematography thus situating UWE as a research leader and the second is to form an umbrella under which a series of initiatives present UWE’s Lens Based Media activities at the highest level and therefore become a primary student destination for anyone wishing to learn any of the crafts of image making..

We wish to hear from students wishing to study with DIRECT, cinematographers, colourists, engineers, artists, and directorswho wish to develop an understanding of this new subject area: info at DIRECT

D I R E C T is lead by Terry Flaxton, Professor of Cinematography and Lens Based Media.
