Overview of the Project:
I am continuing development of a new course on cinematography for the Department of Screen Arts and Cultures. I am requesting $500 for the purchase of film stock and processing for students' use during three in-class workshops. The class is a hands-on exploration of the practice of 16mm motion picture photography where students will learn the technical and aesthetic demands of the craft. The use of analog film will encourage students to practice careful planning, gain intellectual and technical understanding of the medium, as well as strengthening their aesthetic instincts about the process of creating moving images. Students will also learn about of the evolution of motion picture technology as well as its relevance in the age of advancing digital technology.
