GRAPHIC DESIGN, Art 744a, Moving Image Methods: Manipulation, Seduction & Propaganda
107 Green Hall Tuesday 1:30-5:30

Instructor: Julika Rudelius The work in this course is part of the ever expanding field of media and graphic design and, as such, the goal is to experience first hand the extra dimensions of relatively short-form, video work and production. You will become familiar with choreographing images, light, actors, and learn the production processes. In addition to initial production and effect exercises, each student will make a completed video with a point of view that captures the viewers attention, an evocative object with which to think and act. An introductory sequence of prompts or projects will provide skill with video techniques. Video screenings and discussions of your work will provide you with skills in choreographing images, light, actors, and production processes. The final project in this course will be to produce your own short propaganda video which reflects your perspective on an aspect of contemporary culture. This work will be supported and complemented by workshops with Matt Mulder in October and Roel Wouter’s in November.We will focus on the creation of short video exercises using a camera and found materials, to help you concentrate on the methods and themes you want to explore rather than production logistics.
