Class Details
This course introduces students to video art as a time-based medium, encompassing both audio and visual elements, with vastly diverse, interdisciplinary approaches. Students will learn the basics of camera, sound, lighting, and editing alongside critical historical and aesthetic approaches to video art. Coursework includes screenings and discussions, hands-on tutorials, production assignments, readings and active participation in peer feedback. While this course engages collaborative learning, students are expected to do a significant amount of solo work outside of class as well as a self-directed final project. Students’ final projects will explore the relationship between the technical and conceptual, through a subject matter of their choosing.
