I don't actually know who this professor is, but I found this short video clip on RISD's website providing information on their liberal arts department. As many people know I'm considering schools to transfer to and due to that stumbled upon this gem.
I think anyone who has ever been a part of a classroom setting can attest to the fact that some teachers are more than just conduits of information. There are those unique gems that you discover, people within the system who relay life in their classrooms and inspire, not just a desire for education, but for living and exploration. These are the kind of professors that make education worthwhile to me. When I find these kind of teachers I really don't care what they teach I just want to learn from them.
From this video you can tell that this professor has that sort of sparkle to him as I just described. I not only liked this video due to the speaker's learning appeal, but especially for the middle section of the video where he describes his passion for film and the complexities and life within that art form. Some friends of mine were recently considering cinematography and what that art form imparts and I think this man pins down an element of cinema that my friends and I have been searching to describe.
I couldn't import the video so I included a link for you to follow :-)
