We will learn by making work as well as by researching, reading, and watching films related to our projects. We will begin with brainstorming, research, script or documentary proposal writing, and pre-production. Each student will develop a script or in-depth proposal to begin. As we move into production, we will review and deepen our knowledge of camera, lighting, sound, and editing principles and techniques. We will move between production and post-production in the second half of the semester, first developing sequences, then rough cuts and fine cuts, before ultimately completing our final cut.
Prereq: Film Studies 210 or its equivalent.
1 meeting (3 hours), 1 screening (2 hours); a lab fee may be charged.
