FLM 192 Movement for the Camera
This course will explore the unique challenges of capturing and creating movement for the camera. A dance for the camera is a hybrid and synthesis between the various techniques of film/video and the practice of choreography for the body and the camera. Students will observe pedestrian movements, sports, and gestures, create their own movements and combine these elements into carefully choreographed and edited short videos.Through class screenings of video work, class exercises, reading, writing and discussion, students will learn about various historical and contemporary issues and approaches in movement with video. Short exercises will be introduced for students to develop their own visual style and an increased proficiency with digital video cameras and editing. Prerequisite FLM 139A.
