INTDS 5500 Interdisciplinary Video
Interdisciplinary Video focuses on narrative and non-linear digital filmmaking in time-based work., Digital video incorporates the language of cinema stretching back to the early 20th century, but is not limited to movies. As contemporary art demonstrates, video is a medium that can take on a multitude of meaning when combined and/or installed with other media and can be used to tell stories (real or imagined), record processes and methods, document cultural events and social movements, and to perform for and/or interact with, the viewer in compelling ways. Students explore applications of digital filmmaking to an interdisciplinary practice while gaining a solid technical and formal foundation through the production and critique of projects. Class sessions are comprised of a mix of screenings, discussions, technical demonstrations, periodic lab/studio time, and group critiques.
