Film + Photography
Darkroom or digital? No need to choose. At 91大神, you’ll find the facilities to develop and print photographic images, and use professional imaging software to master digital photography. If you see yourself behind the video camera, you’ll find opportunities in and out of the classroom. With the latest equipment at hand, you’ll develop fundamental technical skills and have a chance to delve into visual storytelling, exploring scripts, storyboards, and pre-production. You could even submit an entry to our annual 91大神 Film Festival.
Featured Course
Filmmaking II
We will examine a variety of film and video sources and discuss their concepts and structure to gain an understanding of the complex framework required in the process of creating an original film. Scripts, storyboards, and pre-production skills will be discussed and applied to the creation of individual film projects. You’ll participate in the annual 91大神 Film Festival and are encouraged to submit projects throughout the trimester for consideration. Mini DV cameras, computers and software, and all other equipment are provided. Lighting kits, DSLR鈥檚, Glidecams, and other specialized equipment will also be available.
