Pascal Vandelanoitte is film scholar and lectures at LUCA School of Arts Brussels and Genk on contemporary film and documentary. He is also Head of Audiovisual Arts at LUCA Brussels.

He obtained a Ph. D. in Social Sciences – Film Studies at the University of Leuven in 2012. At the same time, he was also working as an advisor within the Flemish regional government, with responsibilities for the Brussels arts scene, a position he held for more than a decade. This interest in different art forms is also present in his lectures and research. As such, his recent research focusses mostly on the intertextual use of existing music in film, such as the enriching use of Wagner’s music in Ludwig from Luchino Visconti, Mahler’s music in Ken Russell’s biopic Mahler, or the use and perception of jazz music in film noir. Another focus is the interplay between film and other art forms.

For DocNomads he lectures on contemporary documentary, covering different formats and hybrid works between documentary, art film and installation.
