The Bolex: Working in Film
AFVS 152F

Course Information

Description

All work in this course will be shot on 16mm film using Bolex cameras. Some projects will be silent and cut with splicers, others will add a soundtrack and will be edited using a computer. Through a series of non-fiction projects, students will explore the possibilities of the 16mm film image and the freedom of working with silence or in non-synchronous sound. Class time will include technical workshops, film screenings and discussions of student work.
