It is the goal of this class to take a fresh look at the way films are made so as to open new possibilities of cinema.
Today the industry is facing the greatest challenge to its global technological and cultural dominance. In the not too distant future, all films will be made and distributed differently. The film artists of tomorrow will be those capable of thinking in novel ways. Hence the ambition of this class is to help students imagine their filmmaking beyond the norms generated by the current practice of the medium. Each week some questions relevant to the making of films will be presented by the instructor then debated in group discussions.
Course Objectives: to create a forum where the potential of film can be thought out and expanded beyond the views presently regulating its practice.
