Southwestern Illinois College Seeks Part-Time Film Program Instructor

Steve Ole Olson — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 14:37:13 +0000

SENT VIA THE STLFILMWIRE:

The film program at Southwestern Illinois College is growing all the time, and as a result, we are looking to hire a part time instructor beginning fall semester, 2008.

We’re looking for someone who can teach courses in production (moviemaking, video editing, documentary moviemaking, screenwriting) and film studies (film history, film appreciation, and special topics in film) and possibly other courses down the road. A master’s degree in film is preferred.

Here is a link to the position announcement on the college website.

Southwestern is a great place to teach. Our facilities and equipment are fairly humble, but we have very motivated students. There are least five different teams of SWIC students in the 48 Hour Film
Challenge this year. Three of our students will have films in the upcoming St. Louis Filmmakers Showcase. The school has been very supportive of the film program.

Feel free to write me directly if you have any questions (I run the film program) and pass this announcement along to anyone you know who might be interested. Thanks!
