Augsburg Communication, Film, and New Media department welcomes incoming adjunct instructor James Curry. He is an experienced producer, director, writer and editor with more than 25 years of involvement in the industry. This semester James is teaching Film Sight and Sound as well as Studio Production.

James Curry directed, produced, wrote, and edited the documentary Masterjam. In a press release, Masterjam is described as following “the fallout of a sibling’s suicide on a family, the accelerated deaths of the parents and the investigation into the root cause.”

When asked about his favorite part of teaching so far, Curry said “when student engagement and interest piques via discussion collectively and authentically and when individual responses shed new light on a personal perspective or an insight I’ve never encountered or imagined. Aha moments are always cool too when they resonate beyond one or two students.”
