My name is Madeline and I'm a BA English student. Having written several reviews for the journal and with experience as EIC of my highschool's magazine, I am running for 2022/23 EIC because of my interest in maintaining and developing the journal/podcast with greater momentum.
Through the journal, I was able to attend film festivals, be mentored by a Telegraph film critic and cover films with director Q&As. I wish to extend the opportunities that I gained as a writer to devoting my passion to the role of EIC.
As EIC, I will strive to:
- Maximise the journal's creative potential by engaging with new and experienced writers on a more regular, concrete basis by holding monthly round-up meetings (creating an outlet to share ideas, delegating material to writers and establishing a timeline for writing/publishing)
- Connect with aspiring writers who don't know where to begin through engagement with experienced film critics/reviewers and writing workshops
- See the journal/podcast reach new levels of diverse content: maintaining the concurrent coverage on mainstream/independent films but placing a greater emphasis on non-film review material (e.g. interviewing industry professionals and aspiring filmmakers, film essays in line with the society's screenings and covering the society's workshops)
Vote for me and we can see the journal/podcast reach new heights!
