London Film School, offer full-time MA Degree courses in both Film Making and Screewriting.

"The material from Mackendrick is so good and Paul has done a fantastic job of compiling the teaching notes, filming the interviews and presenting the course."

"Fabulous content, and Paul is a really dedicated person, with great skills for organising material into coherent and self-explanatory content, whether in the written form (I've read the book) or using the audiovisual media."

"It left me thinking about every aspect of filmmaking. I found it very stimulating."

"A well articulated revision of Mackendrick’s theories, touching on several aspects of filmmaking. Paul covered a wide range of ideas very well."

"Well-run. Friendly staff. Inspirational, wise and well-researched discussion. Very helpful. Paul is a great speaker and gets to the heart of issues very quickly. He’s always relevant and interesting."

"I thought the course was excellent and very clearly communicated Mackendrick’s ideas. There was a lot of information and I do imagine I’ll read the book to remind myself of the key points. On the whole it has made me think more deeply about my own work. ‘Go deeper’ as Mackendrick always said."

"It was a useful course. The material was amazing. I’ve been in the business from directing to exec producing for some years but I still found the content highly stimulating and thought provoking."

"Excellent – I wish I had attended the course before I shot my film!"

"I think this workshop is essential for all aspiring filmmakers, screenwriters, producers and actors. You learn so much."

"Paul's material is fabulous. There were some gems here that I hadn't heard expressed so succinctly before. He's amassed an extremely valuable tool for filmmakers in general and I thank him for the work he's undertaken to share this valuable archive and insight."

"Paul is very engaging and I liked his honest approach."

"The handout Paul put together for us exceeded my expectations of what we would receive."

"Fully met and surpassed my expectations. I found it a real shot of thought energy and adrenalin – just what I needed to keep on writing!"

“This was a fabulously immersive weekend, with some real “a-ha” moments drawing together several strands of film learning into a more cohesive whole. Paul shared advanced information that is simply not available from other sources. An extremely valuable experience.”
