NoneCourse description
FILM I: Introduction to Film Study and Film Production – 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th Grades – 2 Semesters NOTE: This course satisfies the VPA requirement for admission to the University of California system. Students learn how films are made, make their own films, and study important films to discover how they have advanced the language of cinema. In the context of these significant works of art, students will discover their own voices as filmmakers as they create a variety of short films during the year. Students work collaboratively to realize their own original ideas in film as they develop the power to affect people with their craft. Students will have access to all necessary equipment to create their films – cameras, microphones, lights, tripods, dollies, editing software, etc. – and the benefit of a supportive environment and direct instruction in the art of cinema. Whether students have been making films for years or have never even tried to make a movie before, this class will provide them with opportunities to explore their creativity as never before while learning about cinema history and the basics of video production and proper workflow.
