Video is an introduction to the moving image as a fine arts medium. The course
will involve hands-on production as well as contemporary screenings and readings that demonstrate elements of the medium. The course will look specifically
at performance, sound, exhibition context, documentary, high and low production values, appropriation, writing, and analysis. The course will introduce
shooting and editing skills, including preproduction skills such as storyboarding
and scripting, production skills such as directing, shot composition, lighting, and
sound recording, and postproduction editing skills in a range of styles.
Evaluation will be based on the technical and conceptual strength of the tapes,
with consideration given to individual development. Lab fee: $100-150.
