FLM 214B Documentary Filmmaking 2
This course merges the critical study of documentary filmmaking with the hands-on construction of documentary narratives found in personal stories and local communities. Working closely with organizations and identifying topics of personal interest, students will have the opportunity to explore issues of concern to the community and themselves. Students complete an edited video as their final project. They will explore a range of documentary approaches to express both cultural/political realities through a personal point of view. In this course students will study documentary approaches as a tool for knowledge and action. Students will analyze documentaries that focus on major social issues, problems and solutions and how these films communicate a call to action within a story. Cross-listed with FLM 129B.
