Reputation

"The school has enjoyed a reputation as one of the world's leading film schools, although whether this is true today is questionable."

This needs hella clarification. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.120.217.107 (talk) 06:59, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Revision

I hope no-one minds - I've updated this page, much of which was directly pulled from the 'History' page of the NFTS website. I have also removed POV content (including one link). I have added a couple of links, and sections on Staff, Funding and Alumni, but there's definitely scope for a History section as well. A number of the currently blank wiki-links (e.g. Kim Longinotto) are big omissions IMO - would be great if someone could start articles on them. Will do myself if time allows... Best wishes :) Hongshi ~Talk

Mission Statement

'Its mission statement is to: "make money from old rope."' This sound like a bit of vandalism to me. Please cite source or this will be removed. Catwizzle (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 14:56, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Recent Projects

Why has this project been singled out, and why is it given such prominence? This looks like self-advertisement. I will remove unless the contributor can justify its inclusion. Catwizzle (talk) 22:28, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Extension

Have spent the last few hours extending this article; I've added the history section and the members section, and cleaned up other parts. Enjoy! Adaircairell (talk) 17:51, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

John Bryce and others?

Just found this interview (with Matthew Jacobs) which mentions an important NFTS tutor, John Bryce:-

http://www.starburstmagazine.com/features/interviews/7030-interview-matthew-jacobs-doctor-who-tv-movie

I will now try and include some of this in the article about Bryce but it seems there must be a lot of information missing about people who have taught at the NFTS. Maybe one way to put this right is if someone could start a list of former staff?

Royal College of Art, School of Film and Television

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

Is the Royal College of Art, School of Film and Television a former name of the National Film and Television School?

As...

- I'm wondering why it redirects here, if it isn't a former name.
- Why there's no mention of the former names of the filmmaking school, on the Royal College of Art or the National Film and Television School
- And also because...

...a 37+ year old film was made at...

The Royal College of Art Film Department according to the BBC, and

The Royal College of Art (Department of Film & Television) according to the BFI Danstarr69 (talk) 12:53, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I'm fairly sure it isn't. It should redirect to the RCA. Might be worth asking at the Humanities refdesk. DuncanHill (talk) 13:07, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The suggestion for Danstarr69 to ask at Humanities refdesk looks reasonable; closing the helpme request. --Gryllida (talk, e-mail) 00:42, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
