The following classes are designed to be of immediate and practical use in an integrated curriculum. Each week students are able to immediately apply the lessons learned in their classes to the films they are producing.

• DIRECTING FOR DIGITAL VIDEO
  • Students are taught the language of filmmaking and the director’s craft as applied to the digital format. Aspects of mise-en-scene, visual storytelling, continuity-style coverage, directing actors and writing visually will be emphasized.
• HANDS-ON DIGITAL CAMERA AND LIGHTING
  • Classes help students master the digital medium including white balance, shutter speed, focus, video latitude, gels, and filters using 24p digital cameras.
• DIGITAL EDITING
  • Students learn to “log and capture” their digital footage into the Final Cut Pro editing system. Creating a timeline, inserting footage, special digital effects, and building a digital soundtrack are among the subjects that are covered. Editing instructors are on hand to consult with students on creative and technical aspects of their individual projects throughout the editing process.
• SOUND RECORDING
  • Students learn to get high quality sound for their projects with boom microphones and accessories.

PROJECT ONE ：CONTINUITY STYLE DIRECTING

Students explore film grammar while using the digital camera. Students are taught to plan and shoot “coverage” of a dramatic or documentary subject. Students learn how different camera angles, camera movements, focal lengths, lighting and blocking actors combine to bring the scene together seamlessly in the editing room.
PROJECT TWO：MUSIC FILM
The second project introduces students to the relationship between sound and film, as well as to narrative tools like montage and jump cuts. In this project, students are encouraged to explore a more personal form of visual storytelling.

Students choose a short continuous selection of music. In the editing room, they cut their images to work in concert with, or in counterpoint to, the music. Students should experiment with rhythm and pacing.
PROJECT THREE：FINAL FILM
Project three may be in documentary, fiction or experimental form and up to 7 minutes. The portability and flexibility of digital video make it an excellent format for documentary filmmaking, while the unimposing size of the camera and the ability to shoot in low light levels with small crews allow for a new intimacy working with actors in dramatic projects.

With this project, students explore the unique properties of the digital format. Students plan their projects meticulously, and then improvise and utilize the best aspects of the digital medium. The light weight of the camera makes for great ease of hand-held camera movements. Low light level shooting is possible in such a way that the camera can record very sharp images in a wide variety of environments. Students take their digital cameras into places where film cameras and film crews would not have easy access. Students interested in experimental projects and/or music videos find limitless creative possibilities in digital formats.

Students edit their final digital projects during the last week of the program, which culminates in a final screening open to actors, friends and family. Experimentation in the editing room is encouraged as students explore the advanced functionality of Final Cut Pro.
