I just completed the 'Film for Social Change' course at Stanmore School of Business, and I'm blown away by the experience! The course content was incredibly engaging, and I appreciated how it balanced theoretical foundations with practical applications. I gained a deep understanding of how film can be used as a tool for social commentary and change, which is exactly what I was looking for. The instructor's use of real-world examples, such as the impact of documentaries on policy change, was particularly insightful. I'm already applying the skills I learned to my own film projects, and I'm excited to see the positive impact they can have.
