TECH ARTS

The Tech Arts curriculum is a hands-on, experiential way for our students to learn best practices regarding film production and post production technology in the integrated first year of the MFA Film Program. The curriculum will be taught in 3 different disciplines/sections with up to 12. Instructors: Matthew Farrell, Michael O’Brien, Gregg Conde

 The disciplines/sections are: Cameras and Lenses, Grip and Electric, and Cinema Audio. Students will all be required to take one discipline for registration in their first year.

Cameras and Lenses, Grip and Electric, and Cinema Audio will educate students on this topics utilizing the cameras and lens equipment offered by Film’s Production Center in Nash. In addition to the practicum workshops students will be required to do specific readings and assignments to maximize their learning of the weekly subject matter and participate in class discussion.

Practical Production 1: Lab-Tech Arts Curriculum takes students through the principles of cinematography, lighting, framing, and audio production by working directly with the equipment and technology through small group sections. Technological competency is required to maximize what they are learning through their other classes in directing, screenwriting and producing classes.
