This course is focused on fundamentals of working with digital video as a creative practice in the social sciences. The class is project-based, with students working on short documentaries and video essays.
Learning Goals & Outcomes: In taking this course, you will:
These goals reflect the geography faculty's emphasis on students being able to "explain important elements of geographic thought and practice," and the film studies faculty's interest in students being able to, "analyze moving image arts and media through a variety of critical theories and/or strategies." These emphases are rooted in institutional commitments to Inquiry & Analysis and Integrative Learning. Format: This class is fundamentally project-based. There will also be seminar-styled discussions of theoretical issues related to non-fiction and documentary filmmaking. |
