I’m Jemma Saunders (also known in some circles as Jemma Penny).

Alongside my role managing placements for students aspiring to work in film and television, I’m undertaking an audiovisual PhD (part-time) looking at screen representations of Birmingham UK, where I’m based. My interests include videographic criticism, documentary, TV studies, location/setting, and history on screen.

I am also a published writer, with two historical eBooks to my name (one of which is also available in print), a short travel piece featured in The Telegraph and several Readers’ Tips in The Guardian.
