Sight and Sound I

Students in this course will gain a theoretical and practical understanding of the means by which moving images and sounds (film, video, television) communicate to their audiences. Participants will study texts on the theory of moving images, and examine examples of this process. Then, using digital cameras and non-linear editing equipment, they will produce and edit a number of short projects requiring them to learn the rudimentary techniques for organizing images and sounds in ways that convey information and express feelings. Each student will be required to purchase materials for this course costing approximately $25. (FMMC 0101)
