| Description | Video, still images, and sound are used in this course to explore the fundamental character of storytelling, filmmaking, and time-based art practices. Students perform all aspects of production with particular attention to developing ideas and building analytical and critical skills. We will read seminal written work and interviews with practicing avant-garde artists in order to expand our knowledge, understanding, and love for the medium. Through exercises that include in-class and weekly projects, students will produce sketches aimed at exploring video as an experimentation tool. There will be special emphasis paid to sound design that includes original music, and ambient sound gathered with a separate sound recorder. The class will review the history of video art to give students the basic theoretical tools to critique their own productions and develop an understanding of the possibilities that the medium offers. |
