The course combines screenings, readings, and writing with workshops and digital filmmaking exercises to explore the fundamentals of sound, cinematography, lighting, and non-linear editing. Emphasis is placed on historical and theoretical contexts while supporting the development of each student's individual creative voice. No prior experience is required.
