This course will expand the students’ knowledge of film and theatre history, criticism, and production. Students will understand the cultural context at the time of production as well as the art form’s lasting impact. Particular attention will be paid to the construction of films, as students will work individually and in groups to storyboard, act, film, edit and produce filmed productions for their online portfolio. Opportunities will be given to create films with a social justice lens, and submit films for professional review.
