Earlier last month, students from the School of Arts featured on BBC Radio Kent’s Upload programme with Leo Ulph, who broadcast clips of their creative works.
Ogo Anokwuru, who is completing her final year on the BA (Hons) in Drama and Theatre, featured on the edition broadcast on 18 February 2020. Ogo was interviewed on her own personal YouTube channel, even playing some audio clips of her presenting style. Interviewing Ogo, Leo asked her about students’ spending habits. When asked for her inspiration behind her YouTube channel, Ogo explains: ‘My family think I’m fun, and I thought, yes, I might as well make videos out of it. They love it – they think I’m super funny which is really nice.’

The following week, on 25 February 2020, Molly Field, who is studying on the first year of her BA (Hons) in Media Studies, was interviewed about a mockumentary film titled Alien Society: The First Communication that she made with other students during the module Making Media. After a clip, Molly explains the background to making the film: ‘It was out first term on one of our first modules, we decided on the first day (class) that we thought we’d go for it.’ She made the film with Bartholomew Hall and Ellie Pearce, also first year BA (Hons) Media Studies students.
