Film Production

The introductory film course will immerse students in video production. The primary focus is on using film as a communicative art. Students will learn the basics of cinematography, camera functions, video editing, media analysis, and visual communication. This project-based class will challenge students to explore and produce many different types of films. Projects will include but are not limited to micro-documentaries, narrative short films, public service announcements, commercials, montages, and music videos. Students should have the ability to work independently and collaboratively and see a project from inception to completion. Students must obtain a 1TB or larger external hard drive to store and manage their digital assets. Class size is limited.
