Places & Spaces: Exploring the Narratives of Site in Film

This course focuses on the variety of ways filmmakers have imagined and represented the relationship between the virtual space of screens (primarily in the cinema but also on devices and in the art gallery) and the physical places we encounter in our daily lives. How do various approaches to the creation of moving images reconfigure our ideas about natural landscapes, cityscapes, geography, architecture, home, outer space, and the screen itself? Students will produce a series of three videos (5 to 10 minutes each) engaging various conceptions of place for the space of the screen.
