This course introduces the core components of motion picture production: idea, image, sound, and sequence. In lecture, students will view movies and/or television programmes while considering a variety of questions. What do we want to express? Who is our audience? How do we talk about images? What compositional elements can we control or manipulate? How do we sequence images in order to evoke specific responses? What happens when particular sounds and images are juxtaposed? In related tutorials, students will explore these concepts with digital video cameras and nonlinear editing.
