Humanities Arts Cultural Stu 0279 - Div II Project Seminar: Make a Movie! Collaborative Video Production

This interactive course offers students the guidance and resources to collaboratively produce a video by the conclusion of the semester. Students with an interest in narrative filmmaking, screenwriting, acting, directing, cinematography, producing, prop and set design, and other video production aspects are encouraged to participate. While primarily tailored for Division II level students fulfilling the Division II "supported projects" requirement, advanced Division I and Division III students may also enroll provided they have completed a college-level video production course in a prior semester, or have documentation of filmmaking skills. Following an initial video production exercise, along with readings, screenings, and discussions, students will form groups and progress through the various stages of video project development, from the initial proposal and scriptwriting to video production, lighting, and editing workshops, culminating in the final product. A willingness to engage in collaboration toward a common goal is a must! Keywords:video production, Division II project seminar, film studies, screenwriting, acting
