THE 211 - Film Making (3)


Through the techniques explored during the semester, the student will acquire the procedures and methodology applicable to work in both amateur and professional production. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to: conceive and develop ideas that will lead to compelling, authentic, personally meaningful films; facilitate the expression and development of their own unique artistic identity, cinematic voice and point of view through an exploration of personal experience, interests, concerns, values and inherent taste; develop ideas for stories and characters through observation of, research into, and direct experience with real life; introduce connections between cinematic creativity and liberal arts education, drawing from a broad range of cultural sources; encourage awareness of the infinite possibilities for creative expression inherent in cinema, including documentary and experimental forms; enhance their collaborative skills through group discussion, giving and responding to feedback, and collective brainstorming; and enable them to create a diverse portfolio of project ideas, outlines, synopses, and real film projects that they can draw on in future production classes and life experiences.
