FS 301-399 - Selected Topics in Film Studies

Institution:

Westminster College - Pennsylvania

Subject:

Description:

Selected topics courses study films in a more specific fashion than a survey course would do; for example, a student might examine the work of a particular director; films united by a particular theme, philosophy, or discipline; or films produced during a specific historical period. They will help students develop strategies and skills for assessing the accomplishments of filmmakers and their films and to understand how film may fit into a larger context. Thus, the Topics courses may be taught from the point of view of any discipline or theoretical approach so as to view the infinite possibilities of film. Students will apply and further develop skills they have learned in introductory courses to achieve a higher level of critical thinking regarding their comprehension of the film text.
