Richard Woolley (filmmaker)
Richard Woolley (born 1948) is a British filmmaker, whose films received recognition in the 1970s and 1980s. Since 1990 he has primarily concentrated on film-related educational activities, and script and novel writing.
==Life==
He was educated at London University, where he co-directed a documentary〔(Yorkshire Film Archive )〕 on attitudes to homosexuality in the aftermath of the UK's Sexual Offences Act 1967, and at the Royal College of Art, where he made a series of experimental shorts. He further developed his cinematic skills whilst on a DAAD artist’s bursary in West Berlin, and his two Berlin films〔(Yorkshire Film Archive )〕 – along with a further UK-based film – looked at the relationship of sound and image and the nature of cinematic manipulation in the contexts of 70s Germany (East and West) and 70s Britain. Moving on, in 1978, to incorporate a more conventional narrative style, he made ''Telling Tales'',〔(Yorkshire Film Archive )〕 a film that centred on two couples with opposing interests in an industrial strike. His next film, ''Brothers and Sisters'', made in 1980, at the time of the Yorkshire Ripper investigation, centred on the murder of a prostitute and looked at male attitudes to women across the social spectrum. The film was entered into the 12th Moscow International Film Festival.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=12th Moscow International Film Festival (1981) )〕
He made two further films, ''Girl from the South''〔(Yorkshire Film Archive )〕 and ''Waiting for Alan'',〔(Yorkshire Film Archive )〕 before retiring as a film director to concentrate on educational activities and writing. In 1990 he set up the Northern School of Film & Television at Leeds Metropolitan University, and in 1992 became the first non-Dutch director of the Netherlands’s national film school, the Netherlands Film and Television Academy. In 1997 he went to Hong Kong to set up a new School of Film & Television for the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts. He remained in Hong Kong for eight years as the first Dean of the new school, with just one year back in the Netherlands to set up – and briefly hold – the post of script commissioner or Intendant〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Filmkrant (Dutch Film periodical) )〕 for the Netherlands Film Fund, when his commissions included scripts for two successful Dutch feature films ''Minoes'' (Undercover Kitty (film)) and ''De Storm''. In September 2005 he became inaugural holder of the Greg Dyke Chair of Film & Television at the University of York and the university’s first Professor of Film & Television.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=York University website )〕 In the early 80s he presented film reviews on Yorkshire Television's Calendar Carousel arts programme, and between 1997 and 2000 was a contributor to the Dutch Film Magazine Skrien where his column ‘Hong Kong Post’ appeared on a monthly basis. He has written three published novels〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Official website )〕 – with particular interest being shown in his novel ''Back in 1984'' – and released two CDs of songs. In the 1970s, in addition to filmmaking, he worked as a performer and musician with the Red Ladder Theatre Company in Leeds.
