Mike Kelt, Managing Director, Artem

Mike is Managing Director of Artem, a physical special effects company that is also involved with 3D scanning, and celebrated its 20th anniversary in Jan 2008.  Artem operate from workshops in London and Glasgow so Mike has an appreciation of the issues outside the London area.  He's a great enthusiast for the wider industry and can see a time where all its many facets work and co-operate more closely for the benefit of all.

He is a passionate believer in relevant training and its establishment with recognised standards, and sees a dialogue with the educational establishment and Skillset as critically important.

Mike sits on the British Screen Advisory Council and the Court of The University of Hertfordshire, as well as the Board of UK Screen and has been involved with the association since its inception.

Mike chairs the UK Screen Physical Effects working group.
