Film 2 is a highly collaborative track in which students expand their knowledge of film production and analysis by building off skills introduced in Film Production 1 through genre-based film work.
Each mod of this intermediate track will focus on specific skills relating to particular genres. The specific genres offered each year will rotate from year-to-year but may include film comedy, thriller/suspense, drama, music video, and documentary.
Each mod will culminate in a final film project and students will be expected to submit at least one project to an external festival for external consideration. Students are also expected to attend theatrical film screenings both on campus and off.
Students may take these mods more than once with the instructor’s approval. Students must take at least two mods of this course before moving to Advanced Film.
