Course Overview
Studies in Film Making explores the creative and communicative possibilities of film, video and other
audio-visual technologies. The course will develop your understanding of film as a technological
medium by exploring some of its basic forms and features and by looking at different aspects of moving
image production through a practical and formalist approach. Studies in Film Making prioritizes
practice-based learning (both in terms of the ways that it can develop your understanding of key concepts in
the discipline and because it can enhance your skills in creative thinking). For this reason, many of the
concepts that we will be examining in the course will be explored through practical exercises and
through case studies of specific film and video practices—from classics of experimental film to the latest
new media. Each of these practical exercises and case studies is designed to develop your understanding
of the technical, aesthetic, and sensory workings and potential of audio-visual media and your knowledge
of some of the ways that artists and mainstream producers have explored film and video. This knowledge
can then be drawn on and developed in the creative work that you produce in the course.
In this course you will explore ways of preparing narrative outlines and storyboards, learn how to capture
and generate images and sounds, experiment with existing images and sounds and the editing process.
The course will explore the creative potential of audiovisual media and deal with a range of practical and
conceptual problems in developing a larger group project.
Learning Outcomes
On completion of this course, you should be able to:
1. To introduce some of the creative and conceptual skills required to devise your own unique projects and
to help you recognize the practical decisions faced in the production process.
2. To develop your visual and aural sensitivities and apply them to a diverse range of audiovisual
exercises and projects.
3. To allow you to explore the creative potential of audio-visual media in order to enhance your
analytical skills in your further study of film and media.
