My Exposures

Keep track of what previous contributor to exposures are doing now with our new “exposures alumni” section.
This section is for you so if there is anything else you think would be good for my exposures then let us know!
If you have participated in or contributed to exposures previously and want to let people know what you’re doing now, please get in touch. You don’t have to be an international film director for it to be relevant, we just want to know what you’re up to and we think other people may do too.
If your info is already there and you want to add or amend any details, please do the same (until we get a website you can update yourselves)
Just email comments@cornerhouse.org with your suggestions and we’ll put them up as soon as possible.
