Ridley Scott Searchlab Lecture

Fantastic lecture from one of our greatest Film Directors. Scott oversees every detail of his film - having travelled through the advertising industry, Graphic Design, photography and eventually film making, this lecture is enough to inspire any student and creative practitioner.

He's one of the few directors who has storyboarded (Ridleygrams) his own films.

In the words of Ridley, himself, 'Just. f***ing. do. it.'
