In Filmmaking class, students will have the opportunity to understand the art form of film. Film is an excellent way to communicate as well as evoke emotion from the viewer. Student filmmakers are encouraged to make artistic choices based on compositional framing and editing to compose a storyline that will engage the viewer. Students will learn the numerous tools used in film in order to communicate ideas about their plots lines, themes, and characters in their own films.
