CIME 320 - Documentary Production

FC ARHU PRAX

4 credits
This course explores documentary work in both critical and creative ways. The class introduces students to various ways to think about and understand documentaries (in terms of structure, purpose, audience, etc.) and then gives them the opportunity to practice basic documentary production (camera, lighting, sound, and non-linear editing). After engaging in various individual and small group exercises, students spend the balance of the semester working together to produce a short festival-quality documentary film. Recommended Preparation: CINE 291 or CINE 326.

Prerequisites: CINE 290 and CIME 115.
