This course focuses on the analysis, planning, design, and facilitation of creative projects for public spaces. This course will examine the conceptual framework for what public art is, how artists and designers are engaged, and how public art projects are produced in the United States. In addition, students will gain practical experience and knowledge of the design process for public art. The course will begin with an introduction to public art practice, including a brief history and exploration of public art and design in context.

In this advanced seminar, students develop a semester-long individual or group project in close conjunction with faculty guidance. Students may work in any animated medium. Individual projects evolve through a detailed and continuous process of research, reading, presentation, and peer critique. Emphasis is placed on narrative, personal voice, and producing festival-ready films. This course is typically taken in senior year and is only open to students who have completed introductory and intermediate courses in animation.
