On Reddit: "I just did this course last term, I had never done writing like this before (but have done poetry, short stories, books etc.) so was nervous but excited to broaden my understanding of different types of writing. And honestly I think it was really good, I’ve had Roanna as course …"

On Reddit: "ARTS2066 was fun and Roanna is a great instructor. No existing film studies knowledge needed. Though if you aren't a big movie watcher it would be helpful to go watch some, just to get an idea of good and bad writing in film. Was marked a bit harsh."
