FILM 426: Experimental Filmmaking II

In this production-based course, students will build on skills gained in Experimental Filmmaking I with a focus on the professional execution of an experimental film project. From creating the abstract, to an intensive focus on pre-production, to non-traditional filmmaking techniques, to critique through various stages of post-production, the student will be pushed to create a visionary work for the film festival circuit and beyond. Through this regimented process, the filmmaker will learn skills necessary to write grants, produce and package professional quality cinematic work targeted toward having distribution success.
