This class establishes an advanced and challenging study in digital-video art production. More extensive theoretical discussions, readings and projects will help establish a platform from which students approach their art making, and will help them to consider how and in what way they can progress and experiment in this medium. The class involves intensive advanced-technical training in Final Cut Pro and After Effects, as well as conceptual problem solving. Students will be trained to work with advanced digital-video cameras and advanced editing software to create their class projects. The students will come to understand the digital video as a flexible tool that is able to communicate through a large variety of strategies including multi-channel installations, animation and video composites.
