FPFV649

FA - Fall Only

This is a production workshop for students creating film/video projects of any length or format with an experimental approach to narrative. We will focus on creative interpretations of the traditional facets of narrative filmmaking (character development, dialogue, tension-building and dramatic arcs) while studying a wide variety of contemporary and historical filmmakers and artists blurring the edges between storytelling and experimentation. Students will develop a primary project over the course of the semester, while participating in numerous exercises, workshops and weekly screenings and discussions.
