"Certain people start with a documentary and arrive at fiction...others start with fiction and arrive at the documentary."-Jean Luc Godard This is an introductory course for students who would like to develop their interest in documentary practice. Through a combination of screenings, lectures, readings and technical workshops, we will explore a critical/historical overview of this genre and incorporate our knowledge and experience to produce individual or collaborative projects in a variety of "modes of representation. " Projects need not be restricted to a particular medium; in fact, students will be encouraged to explore the ways in which film, video, and/or animation can be utilized together.
Arts, Design, and Media Independent Work Writing and Research Multiple Cultural Perspectives Lab fee: $65. In this course students are expected to spend 6 hours weekly on preparation and work outside of class time.
Permission is required for interchange registration during the add/drop period only.
