Description:

This course is designed for students interested in video performance, the web, and new models for video distribution including YouTube, myspace, facebook, and blogger. In this course students will create performance-based videos and upload them to the web. We will monitor how videos become viral as students create blogs and myspace pages to distribute and promote their work. Pranks and video performance are encouraged. The class will foster healthy competition as student post works and employ creative techniques to gain viewers to their page. In addition to production we will study work by video artists who use performance, while looking at the array of work on YouTube, building a discourse around audience, perspective, and shifts in the public realm through this new 21st century distribution model.
