Living in our world exposed to constant media sources, the sharing of information forms our reality. In this production class, we are looking at media arts, using inspiration of art and popular culture. Innovative approaches to short film-making will be the focus of the course. Motion will be explored in a digital environment, suing principally Adobe After Effects. Combining technical and theoretical components, this unique course will take advantage of the various shooting possibilities and cultural resources available at selected location and its surrounding areas. This course will include lectures, organized visits, technical workshops in Abobe After Effects, and critiques of student work. (Equivalent to one Professionally Related elective from Table II, see Image Arts in the Undergraduate Program Calendar.)
