Course Catalog Description:
Do you want to engage with a medium of the everyday? From watching a film to making a video of a friend or family reunion, moving images are all around. This is an introductory, hands-on studio course in digital filmmaking. Through lectures, screenings, demonstrations, hands-on practice, readings, and discussions, this course will cover practical and theoretical elements of digital filmmaking. Students will be introduced to film language, aesthetics, and technical terminology, as well as camera, lighting, sound and editing. Throughout the semester we will view and discuss films and clips from a variety of genres, including narrative, documentary, experimental, and combinations thereof. Students create several short film projects. They also develop skills in critical evaluation through critique sessions that investigate the aesthetic, technical, and cultural interpretation of moving images. As filmmakers you are free to make films in any genre in this class. Students need to provide their own portable drive and 1 - 2 SD cards for each class, and may choose to purchase their own subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud if they wish to use their own computer. This course is the prerequisite for intermediate level Department of Art courses in Moving Images including Narrative Digital Filmmaking, Experimental Film and Video, Animation, Super 8 and 16mm Filmmaking.
Class Description:

Introduction to Moving Images provides students with the fundamentals of moving image production. Students create several short film projects and develop skills in critical evaluation through critique sessions that investigate the aesthetic and technical interpretation of moving images. This course is the prerequisite for intermediate level Department of Art courses in Moving Images including Narrative Digital Filmmaking, Experimental Film and Video, Animation and Super 8 and 16 mm Filmmaking.

Learning Objectives:
Students will learn the language of moving images, basic camera systems, the logistics of film/audio production, and basic postproduction techniques while developing an expressive use of the medium. They will explore their artistic voices and become more confident in ways of visual and aural expression.
Class Format:
This is a fully remote course that runs through Canvas. It is semi-synchronous, meaning that we will meet via zoom each week for a portion of the time and then have asynchronous work (available on Canvas) completed on your own during the week.
