This introduction to visual storytelling provides students with the opportunity to identify the components and explore the expressive visual elements that compromise narrative motion pictures. Students work in groups and/or pairs structuring and shooting exercises and original projects to be edited in FVM 160 (which must be taken concurrently). With an emphasis on creating emotional connections between character and audience, this course will help students learn techniques to create and illustrate effective and dimensional stories. Students will also learn the art of collaboration, which is necessary for film production.
