Sight and Sound I

The purpose of the course is to gain a theoretical and practical understanding of how moving images and sounds (film, video, television) communicate. Participants study texts on the theory of moving images, examine examples of this process, and then, using digital cameras and non-linear editing equipment, produce and edit a number of short projects which require learning techniques for organizing images and sounds in ways that convey information and express feelings.
