A warm welcome to our 2007 placements

We've another three fantastic placements under way this year.


Firstly, Central Saint Martin's graduate Laura Jean Healey will be working alongside DoP Seamus MacGarvey on various commercial assingments. Seamus's last film was Atonement, starring James McAvoy and Kiera Knightley; Laura has been watching Seamus at work on the grading.


Over in Plymouth, Digital media artist Birgit Binder is building an interactive web project under the guidance of HMC Interactive Director, Adam Montandon. We hope Birgit will be able to give a work-in-progress preview of this website at a Technical Change seminar at The Lighthouse in Glasgow on 21 June.


Meanwhile back in London, aspiring editor Anna Dick has been selected to work with Emma E Hickox as she edits The Time of Our Lives, another feature starring Kiera Knightley. Daily filming has only just begun so this is a great opportunity for Anna to gain experience right from the start of a project.


We expect Laura, Birgit and Anna to set up their own blogs in due course - watch this space for details!
