Speakers

Haresh Sood | Barrister and Filmmaker/Director | Clerksroom

Whilst working as a Barrister, Haresh never let go of his other works in journalism, drama and film. Moreover, he gradually learned how to integrate these into his legal practice which led him to media law. Consequently, in the background, he continued his radio journalism, drama, and short film projects as he came from a journalism background having worked for the BBC on a freelance basis back in the ‘90’s and early 2000’s. It was not until 2018 that he decided to to bite the bullet and go to film school and embark on an MA in filmmaking. He carefully selected the film school he wanted to attend and ultimately decided to go to Sheffield Hallam University from where he ultimately qualified with a Distinction in Filmmaking. During the course, there was always one central theme in most of the lectures, projects, or seminars: legal responsibility. This often reminded him of his LL.M days in which he studied the legal aspects of journalism and reporting.
