contemporary film theory; an established record, or strong evidence of
potential, in scholarly research and/or in film/video making (and/or the new
media); an established record, or strong evidence of potential, as a teacher
of film studies at the university level. It is also desirable that

Australian and/or other post-colonial cinemas; interest in feminist theory,
ethnography and/or avant-garde cinema; professional and/or academic
experience in theatre or other performing arts.

doctoral levels and participate as desired in theatre courses.
