Description

This course focuses on the creation of the short film. Following the tradition of the independent filmmaker, the Indie Lab provides each student with the opportunity to write, direct, produce and edit 3-5 original short narrative films. With a focus on finding an original voice and style, students will work independently and in skeleton crews. Through a combination of lecture, discussion, critique, and hands-on experience, students will build on storytelling and production skills introduced in fundamental classes to develop a unique vision.
