MCM 2500. Film Appreciation (3 credits)


A holistic examination of feature films and their impact on culture and society. While emphasis is given to the American film experience, global perspectives will also be examined. Course foundations begin with the evolution of film and the historical development of the discursive techniques used to convey meaning to audiences. Topics regarding the aesthetics of films (mise en scene, kinetics, narrative, etc.) and examination of film as a commercial industry will follow.
