2023-2024 Academic Catalog [ARCHIVED CATALOG]
Film Major (FIL), BA
|
|
The film major is designed for students who have a desire to focus on film, television and digital media as art forms with social, political, cultural and economic significance. As media outlets continue to grow within both traditional fields and new streaming platforms, the ability to create original content to fill these outlets is in high demand.
In our program, students work with colleagues and instructors to enhance their skills in filmmaking and media production by learning the various stages of production from story concept through scripting, casting, budgeting, location scouting, scheduling and filming to editing, marketing and screening. The majority of the classes in our program are conducted like real-world production studios - creative, fast-paced and intense.
