Campbell has been teaching advanced film production and script writing at Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design for 16 years, and has taught numerous film workshops across Canada.  She has been active since 1979 in film and video co-operatives and was a founding member of the Cineworks Independent Filmmakers Society, the Independent Film and Video Alliance, and Vancouver Women in Film and Video.  She has also served on the Board of Directors of the Canadian Independent Film and Video Fund, and the Canadian Independent Film Caucus, now known as DOC.  She currently is on the board of Moving Images Distribution and The Bowen Island Film Society.

She represented Canadian film producers during the negotiations that produced the Mexican-Canadian Co-production Treaty.  Campbell has sat on numerous funding, awards and festival juries including the Canada Council and Telus Media.  In 1991, she was given the Simon Fraser University Alumni Award for service to the community.  In February 2002, she represented Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design on a panel on film education at Frames 2002, in Mumbai, India.

In post-production is a three-channel video installation on perceptions and memories of travel, funded by the British Columbia Arts Council.  In development are three short films: CHARLENE FLINTROY, YOU STOLE MY MONEY, an examination of middle class guilt and the anger of the under-privileged; ROCK THE BOAT, where a woman riding a commuter ferry finds the boat too small to include her ex-husband; and CELIA’S CURSE, about a 12-year-old girl who curses her grandfather on his deathbed, causing his ghost to stop pedophiles abusing children at night.

Recently returned from sabbatical from Emily Carr, Campbell is completing a Masters Degree in Fine Arts, a joint degree in Creative Writing and Film Production, at the University of British Columbia.
