Course Description
The earliest films were nonfiction, depicting everyday reality, but while film exploded as a way to tell stories, it also continued as a method to record reality—or at least a filmmaker's interpretation of reality. This course introduces documentary film as an art form and provides a study of the fundamentals of video production. It analyzes documentary films as a window into American society and offers a comparison between documentary and fiction filmmaking. Students improve their technical filmmaking skills and work in groups to prepare an original short nonfiction film. Text: Sheila Bernard, DOCUMENTARY STORYTELLING: CREATIVE NONFICTION ON SCREEN; Steve Stockman, HOW TO SHOOT VIDEO THAT DOESN'T SUCK. Assessment: quizzes (20%), film project (30%), midterm (20%), final exam (30%).
